Here we are given this linear equation with one variable y.

Now we have -7 in multiplication with y on the left side.

We perform opposite operation of multiplication to solve this equation.

so opposite operation of multiplication is division.

Dividing both sides by -7 we have


(-7y)/(-7) =(-91)/(-7)

so we have y=13
