    6 (y + 4) = - 3 (2y - 2) + 8y

    6y + 24 = - 6y + 6 + 8y

    6y + 24 = 2y + 6

    Subtract - 2y on both sides

    4y + 24 = 6

    Subtract - 24 on both sides

    4y = - 18

    y = - 4.5

    -9/2 or - 4.5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Distribution; 6y+24 = - 6y+6+8y Combine like terms; 6y+24 = 2y+6 Put y on one side; 6y-2y = - 24+6 Simplify; 4y = - 18 4y/4 = - 18/4 y = - 9/2 or - 4.5
