Solve the equation. 5 (2 - y) + y = -6

Y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

5(2−y)+y=−6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5(2−y)+y=−6

(5)(2)+(5)(−y)+y=−6(Distribute)

10+−5y+y=−6

(−5y+y)+(10)=−6(Combine Like Terms)

−4y+10=−6

−4y+10=−6

Step 2: Subtract 10 from both sides.

−4y+10−10=−6−10

−4y=−16

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4y

−4

=

−16

−4

y=4

the 2 figures are congruent bc if you reflect abcd over the y axis then over the d axis the figures overlap
