y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]75 - 3.5y - 4y = 4y + 6[/tex]

Collect like terms and simplify

[tex] - 3.5y + 4y - 4y = 6 - 75 \\ - 11.5y = - 69[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by-3.5

[tex] \frac{ - 11.5y}{ -11.5} = \frac{ - 69}{ - 11.5} [/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y = 6[/tex]

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Add like terms: 75 - 7.5y = 4y +6

subtract 6 from both sides: 69 - 7.5y = 4y

add 7.5y to both sides: 69 = 11.5y

divide both sides by 11.5: 6 = y
