Answer
The solution is -4
Work Step by Step
-2y-10=5y+18 Add 10 to both sides
-2y-10+10=5y+18 +10
-2y=5y+28 Subtract 5y from both sides
-2y-5y=5y+28 -5y
-7y =28 Divide by -7 on both sides
$\frac{-7y}{-7}$=$\frac{28}{-7}$
y=-4
The solution is -4
Check
-2y-10=5y+18 Replace x with -4
-2(-4)-10=5(-4)+18
8-10=-20+18
-2=-2
