Solve the equation: (5y + 2)(y - 3) = -13(2 + y)

2i

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

(5y + 2)(y - 3)

5y^2-15y+2y-6

Which can be simplified into 5y^2-13y-6

Now the equation now looks like this: 5y^2-13y-6=-13(2+y)

For -13(2+y) multiply -13 with 2+y

Which is -26-13y

5y^2-13y-6=-26-13y

Simplify:

5y^2+20

Which can be simplified into 5(y^2+4)

y^2+4=0

y^2=-4

y=2i

Hope this helps!
