Answer:

[tex]y = - 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]2 \times ( - y) = 8[/tex]

[tex]multiplying \: a \: positive \: \: and \: a \: negative \: equals \: a \: negative \: ( + ) \times ( - ) = ( - )[/tex]

[tex] - 2y = 8[/tex]

[tex]divide \: both \: sides \: of \: the \: equation \: by \: - 2[/tex]

ANSWER IS:

[tex]y = - 4[/tex]
