Subproblem 3
Set the factor '(1 + -4y)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + -4y = 0

Solving
1 + -4y = 0

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

Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + -4y = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + -4y = 0 + -1
-4y = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
-4y = -1

Divide each side by '-4'.
y = 0.25

Simplifying
y = 0.25
Solution
y = {-0.1666666667, 0.25}
