\( 1 \leftarrow \begin{array}{l}\text { Solve and check your solution. } \\ -5.8=9.2-3 y \\ y=\square \text { (Type an integer or a decimal.) }\end{array} \)

To solve the equation \(-5.8 = 9.2 - 3y\), start by isolating \(y\). First, subtract 9.2 from both sides: \(-5.8 - 9.2 = -3y\) or \(-15 = -3y\). Now, divide both sides by -3: \(y = 5\). To check your solution, plug \(y = 5\) back into the original equation: \(-5.8 = 9.2 - 3(5)\), which simplifies to \(-5.8 = 9.2 - 15\) or \(-5.8 = -5.8\), confirming that \(y = 5\) is indeed correct!
