Answer:

[tex]y = -4\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]16-(3-4y) = 2(y+2)[/tex]

Distribute.

[tex]16 - 3 + 4y = 2y + 4[/tex]

Combine like terms.

[tex]13 + 4y = 2y + 4[/tex]

Subtract [tex]2y[/tex] from both sides.

[tex]13 + 2y = 4[/tex]

Subtract 13 from both sides.

[tex]2y = -9[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]y = -4\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

I hope this helps!
