2\left(13+2y\right)-15y=40
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5.
26+4y-15y=40
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 13+2y.
26-11y=40
Combine 4y and -15y to get -11y.
-11y=40-26
Subtract 26 from both sides.
-11y=14
Subtract 26 from 40 to get 14.
y=\frac{14}{-11}
Divide both sides by -11.
y=-\frac{14}{11}
Fraction \frac{14}{-11} can be rewritten as -\frac{14}{11} by extracting the negative sign.
