y-2=-195+5y-3
Use the distributive property to multiply -5 by 39-y.
y-2=-198+5y
Subtract 3 from -195 to get -198.
y-2-5y=-198
Subtract 5y from both sides.
-4y-2=-198
Combine y and -5y to get -4y.
-4y=-198+2
Add 2 to both sides.
-4y=-196
Add -198 and 2 to get -196.
y=\frac{-196}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
y=49
Divide -196 by -4 to get 49.
