Haynes · Answer 1

Y+5 = - 12 you need to group like terms which is 5 and - 12, so you would move the 5 across the equal sign to where the - 12 is Therefore making the 5 negative Y = - 12-5 Then you subtract - 5from - 12 Which equals Y = - 17

Jayson · Answer 2

Solve y, y + 5 = - 12

add (-5) to both sides, then

y + 5 + (-5) = - 12 + (-5)

y = - 17

Solve y + 5 = - 12a. y = - 19b. y = - 17c. y = - 7d. y = 7

Solve y + 5 = - 12

a. y = - 19

b. y = - 17

c. y = - 7

d. y = 7
