15+y=10+2y-6.4
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 5+y.
15+y=3.6+2y
Subtract 6.4 from 10 to get 3.6.
15+y-2y=3.6
Subtract 2y from both sides.
15-y=3.6
Combine y and -2y to get -y.
-y=3.6-15
Subtract 15 from both sides.
-y=-11.4
Subtract 15 from 3.6 to get -11.4.
y=11.4
Multiply both sides by -1.
