Calculate
−4(10−2y)
Apply the distributive property
−4×10−(−4×2y)
Multiply the numbers
−40−(−4×2y)
Multiply the numbers
−40−(−8y)
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses

5−40+8y
Subtract the numbers
−35+8y
−35+8y=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
8y=0+35
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
8y=35
Divide both sides
88y=835
Solution
y=835
Alternative Form
y=4.375
