Question

$$7-7y=-18$$

Solve for y

$y = \frac{25}{7} = 3\frac{4}{7} \approx 3.571428571$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract $7$ from both sides.

$$-7y=-18-7$$

Subtract $7$ from $-18$ to get $-25$.

$$-7y=-25$$

Divide both sides by $-7$.

$$y=\frac{-25}{-7}$$

Fraction $\frac{-25}{-7}$ can be simplified to $\frac{25}{7}$ by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$y=\frac{25}{7}$$
