Answer: 1.4

Step-by-step explanation: First, swap the sides of the equation so that the one with the variable can be in front.

So, its 2y=2.8

To solve this, you simply divide both sides of the equation by 2.

2 divided by 2 is 0. That leaves you with the y by itself. Then, 2.8 divided by 2 is 1.4

So, y=1.4
