Step by Step Solution

Step 1 – Separate the variable and constants

Write the original equation and separate the variable and constants.

13y+19=54+6y+1413y+1919=+6y+6819 Subtract 19 from both sides13y+0=6y+49 Simplify13y6y=6y6y+49 Subtract 6y from both sides7y=49 Simplify

Step 2 – Solve for y

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 7.

7y7=497y=7

Therefore, the solution of the equation is y=7.

Step 3 – Check the solution 

To check the solution, write the original equation and substitute the value of y.

13y+19=54+6y+14

Now, substitute y=7 and check the result.

13×7+19=54+6×7+1491+19=54+42+14110=110

As the left-hand side is equal to right hand side, this signifies that the solution is correct.
