Solve the following equation: 4(2y + 6) = -4y

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Distribute

4(2y + 6) = -4y

8y + 24 = -4y

Step 2:  Add 4y to both sides

8y + 24 + 4y = -4y + 4y

12y + 24 = 0

Step 3:  Subtract 24 from both sides

12y + 24 - 24 = 0 - 24

12y = -24

Step 4:  Divide both sides by 12

12y / 12 = -24 / 12

y = -2

 y = -2

76%

step-by-step explanation:

24% are dogs and the remaining is 76% because 100-24=76
