12y +20 +19 = 25y +10 - 13
13y = 42
y = 42/13 ANSWER
4(3y+5)+19=5(5y+2)-13
When multipled thru
12y + 20 + 19 = 25y + 10 - 13
12y +39 = 25y - 3
Collecting like terms
25y - 12y = 39 + 3
13y = 42
Y = 42/13
4(3y+5)+19=5(5y+2)-13
12y+20+19=25y+10-13
13y=42
y=42/13
12y + 39 = 25y - 3
42 = 13y
y = 42/13
y = 3 + 3/13
42/13 as an improper fraction, or 3 3/13 as a mixed number.
