Answer:

y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-6y + -7 = 29

       +7    +7

      -6y = 36  

       -6      -6

          y = -6

Here's our original equation. We're trying to get y by itself, so we first subtract seven. (What you do to one side, you do to the other). That leaves us with -6y = 36. Next, let's divide both sides by -6. This leaves us with our final equation, y = -6. I really hope this helps!
