Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Simplify the Equation
To simplify the equation \( y - 15 = 4y \), we first move all terms involving \( y \) to one side of the equation:
\[
y - 4y = 15
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
-3y = 15
\]
Step 2: Solve for \( y \)
Next, we solve for \( y \) by dividing both sides by \(-3\):
