What is the value of y in the equation 2(3y + 7 + 5) = 196 − 16?

y= 26

Step-by-step explanation:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3y+7+5)=196-16

Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(3y+7+5)=196-16

(2)(3y)+(2)(7)+(2)(5)=196+-16(Distribute)

6y+14+10=196+-16

(6y)+(14+10)=(196+-16)(Combine Like Terms)

6y+24=180

Subtract 24 from both sides.

6y+24-24=180-24

6y=156

Divide both sides by 6.

6y/6=156/6

y=26
