The question is kinda confusing but for what i know, If you were to solve it like this 2y = (2)(4) y - 8, You would first have to solve for the parenthesis and you would be left with 2y = 8y - 8. Then you would subtract 8y from both sides, left with -6y = -8. The last and final step would be for you to divide by - 6, with lastly leaves you with y = 4/3
