y-3y+6-10=2y
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by y-2.
-2y+6-10=2y
Combine y and -3y to get -2y.
-2y-4=2y
Subtract 10 from 6 to get -4.
-2y-4-2y=0
Subtract 2y from both sides.
-4y-4=0
Combine -2y and -2y to get -4y.
-4y=4
Add 4 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
y=\frac{4}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
y=-1
Divide 4 by -4 to get -1.
