Solve. \[ 3(y-8)=-6 \]

First, let's simplify the equation: Distributing 3 into \( (y-8) \), we get: \[ 3y - 24 = -6 \] Next, we'll add 24 to both sides of the equation: \[ 3y - 24 + 24 = -6 + 24 \] \[ 3y = 18 \] Now, we'll divide both sides by 3 to solve for \( y \): \[ y = \frac{18}{3} \] \[ y = 6 \] So the solution is \( y = 6 \).
