Question

1. 35 = y - 3

a) 32 b) 38
c) -4 d) -38

Explanation:

Step1: Solve for y

To solve the equation \( 35 = y - 3 \), we add 3 to both sides of the equation.

$$ 35 + 3 = y - 3 + 3 $$

Step2: Simplify both sides

Simplifying the left side: \( 35 + 3 = 38 \).
Simplifying the right side: \( y - 3 + 3 = y \).
So, \( y = 38 \).

Answer:

b) 38
