Linear equations 3y+2=5

Hey!

I'm assuming that you would like to solve this equation for y:

3y + 2 = 5

3y = 3

y = 1

As an explanation of what I did, I first subtracted 2 from both sides so that I could isolate the y. Since the y had a coefficient of 3 I had to divide both side by 3, which gave us that y = 1.
