Question
$7 + 4y = - 5$
✓
Answer
$7 + 4y = -5$ Subtracting $7$ from both sides,
we get $7 + 4y - 7 = -5 -7 4y = -12$ Dividing both sides by $4,$
we get $\text{y}=\frac{-12}{4}$ $\text{y}=-3$ Verification: Substituting $y = -3 in L.H.S.,$
we get $L.H.S. = 7 + 4y = 7 + 4(-3) = 7 - 12 = -5,$
and $R.H.S. = -5 L.H.S. = R.H.S.$
Hence, verified.
