What’s the second step of 2(x+1) =8x-5

2(x + 1) = 8x - 5

assuming you already made the first step, the next step is to distribute the 2

2x + 2 = 8x - 5

if you havent made the first step, above is the first step.

the second step would be to combine like terms by subtracting 2x and adding 5 to both sides

7 = 6x

then you would divide both sides by 6

x = 7/6

fa tha first one you gonna add y to both sides

it look like this

x-y+y=6+y

x=y+6

therefore your answer is

x =y+6

fa tha second one

you gonna flip tha equation

it gonna look like x-4y=y

then add 4 to both sides

it gonna look like tha

x-4 +4 =y +4

so therefore tha answer is x=y+4
