Answer:

y equals -1.16 (repeating decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

I got the answer by first solving what is in the parentheses. 42-6=36. After this, I subtracted 36 on both sides to get the variable (y) by itself. After I did this, I had 24y = -28. So, I divided both sides by 24 (24y). The y was left by itself and -28/24=1.16 (repeating decimal).

Therefore, y=1.16,1.17 when rounded, or -7/6 as a fraction
