Answer:

y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can solve for y by isolating it.

Solve for y

  • 3y - 15 = y + 1
  • 3y - 15 - y = y +1 - y
  • 2y - 15 = 1
  • 2y - 15 + 15 = 1 + 15
  • 2y = 16
  • y = 16/2
  • y = 8

The value of y is 8.

3y ➖15 = y ➕ 1

We move all terms to the left:

3y ➖ 15 ➖ (y ➕ 1) = 0

We get rid of the parentheses.

3y ➖ y ➖ 1 ➖ 15 = 0

We add all the numbers and all the variables.

2y ➖ 16 = 0

We move all terms containing y to the left side, all other terms to the right side

2y = 16

y = 16/2

y = 8
