Question

Solve the equation.

 

$14y-3=25$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The solution is $y=2$.

Step 1- Consider the equation.

Consider the equation $14y-3=25$.

 

Subtract 25 from both sides of the equation.

Step 2- Step description.

$\begin{array}{l}14y-3=25\\ 14y-3-25=0\end{array}$

Step 3- Step description.

Simplify the equation as follows:

$\begin{array}{l}14y-3-25=0\\ 14y-28=0\\ 14y=28\end{array}$

Divide both sides of the equation by 14.

$\begin{array}{l}14y=28\\ y=\frac{28}{14}\\ y=2\end{array}$

Therefore, the solution is y=2.
