0.7 (1.5 + y) = 3.5y - 1.47

Solve

y =.9

Step-by-step explanation:

0.7 (1.5 + y) = 3.5y - 1.47

Distribute

1.05 +.7y = 3.5y - 1.47

Subtract. 7y from each side

1.05 +.7y.-.7y = 3.5y-.7y - 1.47

1.05 = 2.8y - 1.47

Add 1.47 to each side

1.05+1.47 = 2.8y

2.52 = 2.8y

Divide by 2.8

2.52/2.8 = y

.9 = y
