9y-1=y-25 and with work? Is really confusing me.

x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First Subtract the lowest variable which would be "y" from 9y. 9y changes to 8y and y cancels out, bring everything else down. the equation is now 8y-1=-25. Now add positive one to both sides - 25 becomes - 24 and - 1 cancels out. the equation is now 8y=-24. - 24 divided by 8 equals - 3 and the 8y cancels out. the equation is now x equals - 3.
