[tex]3\cdot(2y-5)=9[/tex]

Applying the distributive property in this case:

[tex]6y-15=9[/tex]

Adding 15 at both sides of the equation:

[tex]6y-15+15=9+15\rightarrow6y+0=24[/tex]

Then

[tex]6y=24[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 6, we finally have:

[tex]\frac{6}{6}y=\frac{24}{6}\rightarrow y=4[/tex]

Therefore, the value for y = 4.
