y+0.6=.8(y+2)

Solution for y+0.6=.8(y+2) equation:

Simplifying
y + 0.6 = 0.8(y + 2)

Reorder the terms:
0.6 + y = 0.8(y + 2)

Reorder the terms:
0.6 + y = 0.8(2 + y)
0.6 + y = (2 * 0.8 + y * 0.8)
0.6 + y = (1.6 + 0.8y)

Solving
0.6 + y = 1.6 + 0.8y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-0.8y' to each side of the equation.
0.6 + y + -0.8y = 1.6 + 0.8y + -0.8y

Combine like terms: y + -0.8y = 0.2y
0.6 + 0.2y = 1.6 + 0.8y + -0.8y

Combine like terms: 0.8y + -0.8y = 0.0
0.6 + 0.2y = 1.6 + 0.0
0.6 + 0.2y = 1.6

Add '-0.6' to each side of the equation.
0.6 + -0.6 + 0.2y = 1.6 + -0.6

Combine like terms: 0.6 + -0.6 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.2y = 1.6 + -0.6
0.2y = 1.6 + -0.6

Combine like terms: 1.6 + -0.6 = 1
0.2y = 1

Divide each side by '0.2'.
y = 5

Simplifying
y = 5
