Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

 1.1     Pull out like factors :

   20y - 28840  =   20 • (y - 1442) 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

Equations which are never true :

 2.1      Solve :    20   =  0

This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 2.2      Solve  :    y-1442 = 0 

 Add  1442  to both sides of the equation : 
                      y = 1442
