Bring all the variables with y to one side:
4y = 42 - 3y
4y + 3y = 42 - 3y + 3y
7y = 42

Divide both sides by 7 to get the y alone:
7y ÷ 7 = 42 ÷ 7
y = 6

4y = 42 - 3y

First, add '3y' to both of the sides.
[tex]4y + 3y = 42[/tex]
Second, add '4y + 3y' to get '7y'.
[tex]7y = 42[/tex]
Third, divide both sides by '7'.
[tex]y = \frac{42}{7} [/tex]
Fourth, how many times does 7 go into 42? 42 ÷ 7 = '6'.
[tex]y = 6[/tex]

Answer: y = 6
