Add 0 and 3 to get 3.
9=32\left(y+2\right)
Calculate 3 to the power of 2 and get 9.
9=32y+64
Use the distributive property to multiply 32 by y+2.
32y+64=9

32y=9-64
Subtract 64 from both sides.

Subtract 64 from 9 to get -55.
y=\frac{-55}{32}
Divide both sides by 32.
y=-\frac{55}{32}
Fraction \frac{-55}{32} can be rewritten as -\frac{55}{32} by extracting the negative sign.
