PROBLEM
Solve the equation: .
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The given equation is a linear equation in one variable, y.
. The equation is in the form ax + b = cx + d, where a, b, c, and d are constants.
STEP 2
The given equation is
STEP 3
We can start by simplifying both sides of the equation. On the right side, distribute the6 to both y and3.
STEP 4
Further simplify the right side of the equation.
SOLUTION
Now, we can see that both sides of the equation are the same. This means that the equation is true for all values of y. Therefore, y is not just a single number, but can be any real number.
