Solution Steps

To solve the equation \(-11 = -22 + \frac{y}{5}\), we need to isolate \(y\). First, add 22 to both sides to eliminate the constant term on the right. Then, multiply both sides by 5 to solve for \(y\).

Step 1: Isolate the Fraction

Start with the given equation:

\[ -11 = -22 + \frac{y}{5} \]

Add 22 to both sides to isolate the fraction:

\[ -11 + 22 = \frac{y}{5} \]

\[ 11 = \frac{y}{5} \]

Step 2: Solve for \( y \)

Multiply both sides by 5 to solve for \( y \):

\[ 11 \times 5 = y \]

\[ y = 55 \]

Final Answer

\[ \boxed{y = 55} \]
