Full solution

Q. Solve for yy.\newline11y8y2=1011y - 8y - 2 = 10\newliney=y = ____
  1. Combine like terms: Combine like terms on the left side of the equation.\newline11y8y2=1011y - 8y - 2 = 10\newline(118)y2=10(11 - 8)y - 2 = 10\newline3y2=103y - 2 = 10
  2. Add 22 to isolate: Add 22 to both sides to isolate the term with the variable yy.3y2+2=10+23y - 2 + 2 = 10 + 23y=123y = 12
  3. Divide by 33: Divide both sides by 33 to solve for yy.3y3=123\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{12}{3}y=4y = 4
