y/-2 + 5 = 13
y/-2 = 13 - 5 = 8
y = -2(8) = -16
y = -16

Answer:

[tex]y=-16[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is written:

[tex]-y/2+5=13[/tex]

We multiply the whole expression by 2 to get rid of the fraction:

[tex]-y+5\cdot(2)=13\cdot(2)[/tex]

[tex]-y+10=26[/tex]

We move -y to the right hand side to make it positive y and move 26 to the left side to subtract it from 10:

[tex]10-26=y[/tex]

[tex]y=-16[/tex]
