• -4

Solve     12 - 6y = 24

• 2
• -2
• 3
• -3

The steps in solving 5b - 6 = 24 are: 

• Add 6 to both sides and divide both sides by 5
• Add 6 to both sides and multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then divide both sides by 5

x + x + 6 = 26

• x = 8
• x = 10
• x = 16
• x = 32
