Please help Describe two different ways to solve 8y + 22 = 2y – 12 and tell whether the two solutions will be the same.

(written response)

8y+22=y-12

First way:
—> subtract 2y and 22 from both sides to get 6y= -34
—> divide both sides to get 3y= -17
—> divide both sides by 3 to get y= -(17/3)

Second way:
—> add 12 to both sides and -8y from both sides to get -6y= 34
—> divide both sides by 2 to get -3y= 17
—> divide both sides by -3 to get y= -(17/3)

There are at least 2 other ways to solve this. This is just two ways. The solution will ALWAYS be the same if you have done it correctly. Y will always = to -(17/3)

You would plot 83 on the 83 line and you would plot -113 on the -113 line.
