7y/28y^2+(-4y)/28y^2-2=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


7y+(-4y)-2*28y^2=0

Wy multiply elements

-56y^2+7y+(-4y)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-56y^2+7y-4y=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-56y^2+3y=0

a = -56; b = 3; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 32-4·(-56)·0
Δ = 9
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{9}=3$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)-3}{2*-56}=\frac{-6}{-112}
=3/56
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)+3}{2*-56}=\frac{0}{-112}
=0
