Sagot :

Given the following equation,

[tex]\text{ 2\lparen2y - 16\rparen = 0}[/tex]

Let's determine the value of y.

[tex]\text{ 2\lparen2y - 16\rparen = 0}[/tex][tex]\text{ }\frac{2(2y\text{ - 16\rparen}}{2}\text{ = 2}[/tex][tex]\text{ 2y - 16 = 0}[/tex][tex]\text{ 2y = 16}[/tex][tex]\text{ }\frac{2y}{2}\text{ = }\frac{16}{2}[/tex][tex]\text{ y = 8}[/tex]

Therefore, y = 8

The answer is 8.
