add 7y to both sides and subtract 6 from both sides. you now have 10y=24
divide by 10 and you have y=2.4
3 y + 6 = 30 − 7 y ∣ a dd 7 y 10 y + 6 = 30 ∣ s u b t r a c t 6 10 y = 24 ∣ d i v i d e b y 10 y = 2 , 4 S o l u t i o n i s y = 2 , 4.
To solve the equation 3 y + 6 = 30 − 7 y , we isolate the variable terms and combine them. After simplifying and solving for y , we find that y = 2.4 . This method can be useful for similar linear equations.
