Answer:


\large\boxed{y=2}

Explanation:

In this question, we're going to solve the equation.

What we would do is plug in the given information in the right variable. In this case, we would plugin -8 to x, since x = -8

We are solving for y, so we would nee to find how much y = ?

Your equation should look like this:


4(-8)+9y=-14

Lets solve:


4(-8)+9y=-14\\\\\text{Multiply}\, 4(-8)\\\\-32+9y=-14\\\\\text{Add 32 to both sides}\\\\9y=18\\\\\text{Divide}\\\\y=2

When you're done solving, you should get y = 2

This means that y = 2

I hope this helped you out.

Good luck on your academics.

Have a fantastic day!
