Answer :

absor201

the solution is y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is

[tex]8+5y=(8y-6)-7[/tex]

The equation has to be solved for y

So,

Opening brackets first

[tex]8+5y=8y-6-7\\8+5y=8y-13[/tex]

Subtracting 8 from both sides

[tex]8+5y-8=8y-13-8\\5y=8y-21[/tex]

subtracting 8y from both sides

[tex]5y-8y = 8y-21-8y\\-3y=-21y[/tex]

Dividing both sides by -3

[tex]\frac{-3y}{-3} = \frac{-21}{-3}\\y = 7[/tex]

so,

the solution is y = 7
