8y+26=2y-4?
the idea is move variable one side, and numerical part the other side.
8y + 26 = 2y -4
8y -2y +26 = 2y -2y -4
6y +26 = 0y -4
6y +26 -26 = -4 -26
6y + 0 = -30
6y = -30
6/6y = -30/6
1y = -30/6 or -5
y = -5
*still confused? write back

Rewrite as: 8y-2y=-26-4, or 6y=-30, and y=-5 [ans.]

8y -2y= -4-26= -30
6y= -30, y= -30/6 = -5.
Ans. y= -5.
