Solve for y.
−42−11y = − 97
First, add 42 to both sides of the equation:
-42 + 42 - 11y = -97 + 42
-11y = -55
Next, divide both sides by -11 to solve for y:
y = -55 / -11
y = 5
Therefore, the solution for y is 5.
−42−11y = − 97
-42 + 42 - 11y = -97 + 42
-11y = -55
Next, divide both sides by -11 to solve for y:
y = -55 / -11
y = 5
Therefore, the solution for y is 5.
