Solve for y 74y-8-78y=-4y-8

$74 y - 8 - 78 y = - 4 y - 8$

Step 1

Subtract $78 y$ from $74 y$ .

$- 4 y - 8 = - 4 y - 8$

Step 2

Move all terms containing $y$ to the left side of the equation.

Add $4 y$ to both sides of the equation.

$- 4 y - 8 + 4 y = - 8$

Combine the opposite terms in $- 4 y - 8 + 4 y$ .

Add $- 4 y$ and $4 y$ .

$0 - 8 = - 8$

Subtract $8$ from $0$ .

$- 8 = - 8$

Step 3

Since $- 8 = - 8$ , the equation will always be true for any value of $y$ .
