Questions: 10 + 1/3 y = 1

Transcript text: $10+\frac{1}{3} y=1$

Solution

Step 1: Isolate the term containing $ y $

Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation: \[ 10 + \frac{1}{3} y - 10 = 1 - 10 \] Simplify: \[ \frac{1}{3} y = -9 \]

Step 2: Solve for $ y $

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction: \[ 3 \cdot \frac{1}{3} y = -9 \cdot 3 \] Simplify: \[ y = -27 \]

$\boxed{y = -27}$
