Equation Simplification: We have the equation:1+2y=yTo eliminate the square roots, we square both sides of the equation:(\sqrt{1 + 2y})^2 = (\sqrt{y})^2\(\newline\$1 + 2y = y\)
Isolating y: Now we solve for y:\(\newline\)\(1 + 2y = y\)\(\newline\)Subtract \(y\) from both sides to isolate terms with \(y\) on one side:\(\newline\)\(2y - y = -1\)\(\newline\)\(y = -1\)
