Question

Solve 3y = $fraction numerator 8 minus 12 y over denominator 4 end fraction$ + 2

hint Hint:

An equation with variables on both sides of the "equal to" sign i.e. on LHS and RHS can be solved by first simplifying both the sides (Opening up the brackets, addition, subtraction, i.e. if any) and then all the variables are taken on 1 side of the equation and all the constants i.e. numbers on the other side. Both sides are then simplified further and the solution is obtained.

The correct answer is: Value of y for the given equation is 0.67.

Step-by-step solution:-
3y = $fraction numerator 8 minus 12 y over denominator 4 end fraction$ + 2
∴ 3y - 2 = $fraction numerator 8 minus 12 y over denominator 4 end fraction$ .................................. (Subtracting 2 both the sides)
∴ 12y - 8 = 8 - 12y ...................... (Multiplying both sides by 4)
∴ 12y + 12y = 8 + 8
∴ 24y = 16 …....................... (Taking all variables and constants on either sides of the equation)
∴ y = $16 over 24$ ............................. (Dividing both sides by 24)
∴ y = $2 over 3$ = 0.67
Final Answer:-
∴ Value of y for the given equation is $2 over 3$ or 0.67.
