Given the equation;
[tex]-2y-15\text{ = 4y+15}[/tex]You are to calculate the value of y. This is as shown below;
First collect the like terms;
[tex]\begin{gathered} -2y\text{ - 4y = 15+15} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Evaaluate the expression an find y;
[tex]\begin{gathered} -6y=30 \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Divide both sides by -6;
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{-6y}{-6}=\frac{30}{-6} \\ y\text{ = -5} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence the value of y is -5
