8y-8=3\left(2y+4\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 8 by y-1.
8y-8=6y+12
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 2y+4.
8y-8-6y=12
Subtract 6y from both sides.
2y-8=12
Combine 8y and -6y to get 2y.
2y=12+8
Add 8 to both sides.
2y=20
Add 12 and 8 to get 20.
y=\frac{20}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=10
Divide 20 by 2 to get 10.
