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 a 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

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

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

Simplifying
0 = 1 + -1y
