#y = +-3#

Explanation:

#3color(blue)(y^2) =27" "larr# to isolate the #y^2, div 3# on both sides

#(3color(blue)(y^2))/3 =27/3#

#y^2= 9#

#y = +-sqrt9#

#y = +-3#

y = 3 or y = -3

Explanation:

#3y^2 = 27# (divide both sides by 3)
#y^2 = 9# (take the square root of both sides)
#y = +-sqrt(9)#
#y = +-3#
