The equation is 104 = y 67.
According to Addition property of equality: if a = b, then a + c = b + c.
\104 + 67 = y 67 + 67 (Add 67 to each sides)
y = 104 + 67 (Additive inverse property: 67 + 67 = 0)
y = 171 (Add: 104 + 67 = 171)
\Check:
\To check the solution, substitute y = 171 in original equation.
\ 104 = y 67
104 = 171
67
104 = 104 (Subtract: 171 67 = 104)
Compare the values, the equation is true. The solution is y = 171.
\The value of y = 171.
