(y-11) -(y+6)=6y
y - 11 - y - 6 = 6y
y - y - 6 - 11 = 6y
0 - 17 = 6y
6y = -17
y = -17/6
The answer is D) -17 over 6

The answer I got is D. -17/6
(y-11)- (y+6) = 6y
distribute the negative
y-11-y-6= 6y
'y's cancel out on left
-11-6 = 6y
-17=6y
divide by 6
y=-17/6

Use the distributive property (no, the properties never go away) to get rid of the (), so you get y-11-y-6=6y. The second step is combine like terms, so your y's on the left side go away y-y, and you have -11-6, which is -17=6y, divide by the 6 on the right and the anwer is D

D which is -17/6
get rid of the parentheses and you will have y-11-y-6 = 6y
combine the ys on the left side qand combine the numbers on the left side and you will have y-y -11-6 = -17 = 6y
Divide both sides by 6 and you will have: -17/6 = y

I will start you out:
(y - 11) - (y+6) = y - 11 - y - 6
= -17
you do the rest
