Q. Solve.

\newline

2(4 y-1)=22

\newline

Answer:

y=

Distribute $2$ : Distribute the $2$ across the terms inside the parentheses. $\newline$ We need to multiply $2$ by each term inside the parentheses ( $4y$ and $-1$ ). $\newline$ $2 \times 4y = 8y$ $\newline$ $2 \times -1 = -2$ $\newline$ So, the equation becomes $8y - 2 = 22$ .
Add $2$ : Add $2$ to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with the variable $y$ . $\newline$ $8y - 2 + 2 = 22 + 2$ $\newline$ This simplifies to $8y = 24$ .
Divide by $8$ : Divide both sides of the equation by $8$ to solve for $y$ . $\frac{8y}{8} = \frac{24}{8}$ This simplifies to $y = 3$ .
