\left(2y+3\right)^{2}-7+7=7
Add 7 to both sides of the equation.
\left(2y+3\right)^{2}=7
Subtracting 7 from itself leaves 0.
2y+3=\sqrt{7} 2y+3=-\sqrt{7}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
2y+3-3=\sqrt{7}-3 2y+3-3=-\sqrt{7}-3
Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.
2y=\sqrt{7}-3 2y=-\sqrt{7}-3
Subtracting 3 from itself leaves 0.
2y=\sqrt{7}-3
Subtract 3 from \sqrt{7}.
2y=-\sqrt{7}-3
Subtract 3 from -\sqrt{7}.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{7}-3}{2} \frac{2y}{2}=\frac{-\sqrt{7}-3}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{\sqrt{7}-3}{2} y=\frac{-\sqrt{7}-3}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
