3y+5/12 = y-2/3
You asked:
Solve the equation \(3 y + \frac{5}{12} = y - \frac{2}{3}\) for the variable \(y\).
MathBot Answer:
The solution is: \[y = - \frac{13}{24} = -0.541\overline{6}\]
\[\begin{aligned}3 y + \frac{5}{12} &= y - \frac{2}{3}\\2 y &= - \frac{13}{12}\\y &= - \frac{13}{24}\end{aligned}\]
