y=\left(-y\right)\times 1+8
Calculate -1 to the power of 2 and get 1.
y-\left(-y\right)\times 1=8
Subtract \left(-y\right)\times 1 from both sides.
y-\left(-y\right)=8
Reorder the terms.
y+y=8
Multiply -1 and -1 to get 1.
2y=8
Combine y and y to get 2y.
y=\frac{8}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=4
Divide 8 by 2 to get 4.
