How to solve this question:
5y+6-(5y+y)

6-y

explanation:

add the numbers in the bracket as they have the same variable (y):

5y + 6 - 6y

5y and - 6y have the same variable, so solve them:

you get

6 - 1y

the left over numbers don't have the same variable so they can't be simplified further.

There is no "=" sign, so this is just an expression.  To solve means to simplify by combining like terms, where possible.

5y+6-(5y+y) = -y + 6  

Step-by-step explanation:

5y+6-(5y+y)

5y+6-(6y)     [Simplify by combining like terms]

5y+6-6y        [Remove the parentheses, remembering to multiply 6y by -1]

-y + 6            [Combine like terms]
