Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-3 + -1y2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
-3 + -1y2 = 0

Solving
-3 + -1y2 = 0

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

Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 3 + -1y2 = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + -1y2 = 0 + 3
-1y2 = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3
-1y2 = 3

Divide each side by '-1'.
y2 = -3

Simplifying
y2 = -3

The solution to this equation could not be determined.

This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(1 + y)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
1 + y = 0

Solving
1 + y = 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 + y = 0 + -1

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

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

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

Simplifying

-1y = 0 + -1

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

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

Simplifying
y = 1
Solution
y = {-1, 1}
