Greetings.

The answer is y = -2.

Explanation:

The equation is defined to solve for y-term. Our y is currently our subject at this point and needs to be solved.

We move -3 to another side and leave y as the subject of equation. Moving to another side will change the sign/operator to opposite.

Plus ---> Minus

Minus ---> Plus

Multiply ---> Divide

Divide ----> Multiply

Hope this helps! :)
