Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

to determine if the values of y are a solution to the equation, substitute the values of y into the left side and if equal to the right side then they are a solution.

y = 70


(70)/(7) - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9 ≠ - 2 → NO

y = 56


(56)/(7) - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7 ≠ - 2 → NO

y = - 7


(-7)/(7) - 1 = - 1 - 1 = - 2 → YES

y = 0


(0)/(7) - 1 = 0 - 1 = - 1 ≠ - 2 → NO
