Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 2y-1.
6y-3=15y+10
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by 3y+2.
6y-3-15y=10
Subtract 15y from both sides.
-9y-3=10
Combine 6y and -15y to get -9y.
-9y=10+3
Add 3 to both sides.
-9y=13
Add 10 and 3 to get 13.
y=\frac{13}{-9}
Divide both sides by -9.
y=-\frac{13}{9}
Fraction \frac{13}{-9} can be rewritten as -\frac{13}{9} by extracting the negative sign.
