3y + 1 = 4y - 6 what is the answer?

To solve this equation, you need to isolate the variable y on one side of the equation. To do this, you need to move all the y's on side and the constants on the other. You can do this by doing the opposite operation of the terms. In this case, I would subtract 3y from both sides and add 6 to both sides to get

which simplifies to

which would be your answer.
