Answer:

4/7

Explanation:

All you have to do is divide both sides by -14. It cancels out on the side with the y. And you get a simplified answer of 4/7 for your other side which is equal to the y.

Answer:

4/7

Explanation:

1. In order to isolate y, you must divide -8 by -14.

2. -8/-14 --> 8/14 since the dividing two negatives gets you a positive

3. Simplify the fraction by dividing the top and bottom by 2

8/14 --> 4/7

Hope this helped :)
