Question

complete the process of solving the equation. fill in the missing term on each line. simplify any fractions. 6(y + 1) = 12 \\(y + 1 = \square\\) divide both sides by 6 \\(y = \square\\) subtract 1 from both sides

Explanation:

Step1: Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{6(y+1)}{6} = \frac{12}{6}$
$y + 1 = 2$

Step2: Subtract 1 from both sides

$y + 1 - 1 = 2 - 1$
$y = 1$

Answer:

$y + 1 = 2$
$y = 1$
