Answer:
y = 8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. distribute 3(3y + -1) = 9y - 3
2. distribute -3(2y) = -6y
so, the equation becomes 9y - 3 - 6y = 5
3. combine 9y and -6y = 3y
4. add 3 to both sides so the 3 on the left gets canceled out
the equation is now 3y = 8
5. divide 3 on both sides to isolate y
then, you get your answer! hope this helps!
