`3y +2 (y-2)=(3y )/(2) + 1`
What value of y satisfies the equation above ?

A

`-10/7`

B

`-6/13`

C

`7/9`

D

`10/7`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Distribute the factor of 2, combine like terms, multiply both sides of the equation by 2 to clear the function, and then solve for y:
`3t + 2y-4=(3y)/(2)+1`
`5y-4 =(3y)/(2)+1`
`10y-8=3y+2`
`7y=10`
`y = (10)/(7)`
Choice D is correct.
