Solve -2y+5/3=26/3-y

$$- 2 y + \frac { 5 } { 3 } = \frac { 26 } { 3 } - y$$

Solve for y

$$y=-7$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add y to both sides.

$$-2y+\frac{5}{3}+y=\frac{26}{3}$$

Combine -2y and y to get -y.

$$-y+\frac{5}{3}=\frac{26}{3}$$

Subtract \frac{5}{3} from both sides.

$$-y=\frac{26}{3}-\frac{5}{3}$$

Since \frac{26}{3} and \frac{5}{3} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$-y=\frac{26-5}{3}$$

Subtract 5 from 26 to get 21.

$$-y=\frac{21}{3}$$

Divide 21 by 3 to get 7.

$$-y=7$$

Multiply both sides by -1.

$$y=-7$$
