Step 1
Given;
[tex]\frac{6y}{-2}=8(-\frac{4}{2})[/tex]Required; To find the value of y that makes the equation true
Step 2
Find the value of y
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Simplify} \\ -3y=4(-4) \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{expand} \\ -3y=-16 \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Divide both sides by -3} \\ \frac{-3y}{-3}=\frac{-16}{-3} \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Simplify} \\ y=\frac{16}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the value of y that makes the equation true is 16/3
