So the problem is
y-2=y+2
Would I subtract 2, or add the two? because i know you have to do something with the two, but I have no idea what..
Thank you!
The equation is nonsense. Watch
y-2=y+2
subtract y from each side
-2=+2
Nonsense.
Okay, so I would write down no soloution, thank you!
To solve the equation y-2=y+2, you need to isolate the variable y on one side of the equation. To do that, you'll need to perform some operations.
First, let's simplify the equation:
y - 2 = y + 2
To clarify the process, let's expand the equation:
y + (-2) = y + 2
The (-2) is essentially the same as subtracting 2. So, with that in mind, we can rewrite the equation as:
y - 2 = y + 2
Now, to get y by itself, we want to eliminate y from the right side of the equation. One way to do this is to subtract y from both sides of the equation:
y - y - 2 = y - y + 2
This simplifies to:
-2 = 2
Wait a minute! The equation -2 = 2 is contradictory and cannot be true. Therefore, there is no solution for y.
In conclusion, the equation y - 2 = y + 2 has no solution.
