Answer: The answer is no solution :)

4y+2=-1/3(8-12y)

Simplify it

4y+2=-0.333333333333*(8-12y)

Reorder terms in these parentheses

4y+2=+(-2.66666666667+4y)

Remove uneeded parentheses

+4y+2=-2.66666666667+4y

move all terms that has y to the left and all other terms to the right.

+4y-4y=-2.66666666667-2

simplify left the and right side of the equation,

y=-4.66666666667

0=-4.66666666667

The left and right sides are not equal, so there is no solution :)
