To solve the equation, you need to isolate/get "y" by itself in the equation:

3y - 4 = 6 - 2y        Add 2y on both sides

3y + 2y - 4 = 6 - 2y + 2y

5y - 4 = 6        Add 4 on both sides

5y - 4 + 4 = 6 + 4

5y = 10          Divide 5 on both sides

[tex]\frac{5y}{5} =\frac{10}{5}[/tex]

y = 2

PROOF

3y - 4 = 6 - 2y        Substitute/plug in 2 for y

3(2) - 4 = 6 - 2(2)

6 - 4 = 6 - 4

2 = 2
