Question

complete the process of solving the equation. fill in the missing term on each line. simplify any fractions. $5y + 1 + 4y = 1$ \\(\square\\) + 1 = 1 \quad combine like terms \\(9y = \square\\) \quad subtract 1 from both sides \\(y = \square\\) \quad divide both sides by 9

Explanation:

Step1: Combine like terms

$5y + 4y = 9y$, so the line becomes $9y + 1 = 1$

Step2: Subtract 1 from both sides

$9y + 1 - 1 = 1 - 1$
$9y = 0$

Step3: Divide both sides by 9

$y = \frac{0}{9} = 0$

Answer:

First blank: $9y$
Second blank: $0$
Third blank: $0$
