8y-7=-7 Start with the given equation.


8y=-7%2B7 Add 7 to both sides.


8y=0 Combine like terms on the right side.


y=%280%29%2F%288%29 Divide both sides by 8 to isolate y.


y=0 Reduce.

Answer:

So the solution is y=0


Note: a solution of zero is still a solution, so the answer is NOT "no solution".
