Solution

Sure, let's solve the equation step by step:

  1. The given equation is 6y - 9 = 4y + 7.

  2. To isolate y, we first need to get all the y terms on one side of the equation and the constants on the other side. We can do this by subtracting 4y from both sides of the equation:

    6y - 4y - 9 = 4y - 4y + 7

    This simplifies to:

    2y - 9 = 7

  3. Next, we add 9 to both sides of the equation to isolate the y term:

    2y - 9 + 9 = 7 + 9

    This simplifies to:

    2y = 16

  4. Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for y:

    2y / 2 = 16 / 2

    This simplifies to:

    y = 8

So, the solution to the equation 6y - 9 = 4y + 7 is y = 8.
