y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2y - 3 =

square both sides to remove sqrt bracket

(2y - 3)^2 = ( )^2

simplify both sides

(2y - 3)(2y - 3) = - 10y + 12

- 12y + 9 = - 10y + 12

bring all value to left side

- 2y - 3 = 0

factor

(y - 3)(y + 1)

solve for y

y = 3, y = -1

When plugged back into the equation, only y = 3 is true

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation :

Swap the sides both of the equation.

To remove the brackets of equations square both side and simplify .

3y² - 10y + 12 = 4y² - 12y + 9

Move the expression to left-hand side and change its sign.

3y² - 10y + 12 - 4y² + 12y - 9 = 0

collect like terms

3y² - 4y² - 10y + 12y + 12 - 9 = 0

-y² + 2y + 3 = 0

Change the sign of expression. because it helps to solve.

y² - 2y - 3 = 0

Splits the term -2y

y² + y -3y - 3 = 0

Factor out y from the first pair and -3 from second pair of expression.

y ( y + 1 ) - 3 ( y + 1) = 0

Factor out y + 1 from the expression.

( y + 1 ) ( y - 3 ). = 0

When product and factors equals 0. at least one factor is 0.

y + 1 =0

y - 3 = 0

Solve for y

y = -1 and y = 3

If we plug the 3 as y in the expression we find that y = 3 is the true solution of this expression.

This equation has one solution which is y = 3.
