Answer:
y=−1/7
for the picture is y=-57/7
Explanation:
1. 8= -7y +7
Switch:sides
-7y+7=8
subtract 7 from both sides
-7y=1
divide both sides by -7
y=−1/7
2.so for 8/y+7=-7
multiply both sides by (y+7)
8/y+7(y+7)=-7(y+7)
simplify 8=-7(y+7)
flip
-7(y+7)=8
divide both sides by -7
y+7=-8/7
subtract 7 from both sides
and simplify
y=-57/7
