Subtract the numbers
−2y
−2y+3
−2y+3+13=0
Add the numbers
−2y+16=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−2y=0−16
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−2y=−16
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
2y=16
Divide both sides
22y=216
Divide the numbers
y=216
