Solving for variable 'y'.

Factor a trinomial.
(-1y + -5z)(y + -4z) = 0

Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-1y + -5z)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-1y + -5z = 0

Solving
-1y + -5z = 0

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '5z' to each side of the equation.
-1y + -5z + 5z = 0 + 5z

Combine like terms: -5z + 5z = 0
-1y + 0 = 0 + 5z
-1y = 0 + 5z
Remove the zero:
-1y = 5z

Divide each side by '-1'.
y = -5z

Simplifying
y = -5z
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(y + -4z)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
y + -4z = 0

Solving
y + -4z = 0

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '4z' to each side of the equation.
y + -4z + 4z = 0 + 4z

Combine like terms: -4z + 4z = 0
y + 0 = 0 + 4z
y = 0 + 4z
Remove the zero:
y = 4z

Simplifying
y = 4z
Solution
y = {-5z, 4z}
