Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(2 + y)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
2 + y = 0

Solving
2 + y = 0

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

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.
2 + -2 + y = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
0 + y = 0 + -2
y = 0 + -2
