Answer:


y=5

Explanation:

we are given


1-3y=-14

Since, we have to solve for y

so, we can isolate y on anyone side

and we have to use two step solution

step-1:

Subtract both sides by 1


1-3y-1=-14-1


-3y=-15

step-2:

Divide both sides by -3


(-3y)/(-3)=(-15)/(-3)


y=5

So, answer is


y=5
