Answer 1

ANSWER

B. 15

EXPLANATION

$3y-9=36$

To solve for y, first we have to add 9 on both sides of the equation:

$\begin{gathered} 3y-9+9=36+9 \\ 3y=45 \end{gathered}$

And then divide both sides by 3:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{45}{3} \\ y=15 \end{gathered}$

The answer is option B.
