(2y-1)(y+3)=0

Solution for (2y-1)(y+3)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(2y + -1)(y + 3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 2y)(y + 3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 2y)(3 + y) = 0

Multiply (-1 + 2y) * (3 + y)
(-1(3 + y) + 2y * (3 + y)) = 0
((3 * -1 + y * -1) + 2y * (3 + y)) = 0
((-3 + -1y) + 2y * (3 + y)) = 0
(-3 + -1y + (3 * 2y + y * 2y)) = 0
(-3 + -1y + (6y + 2y2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1y + 6y = 5y
(-3 + 5y + 2y2) = 0

Solving
-3 + 5y + 2y2 = 0

Solving for variable 'y'.

1 + -1 + -2y = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + -2y = 0 + -1
-2y = 0 + -1

Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1
-2y = -1

Divide each side by '-2'.
y = 0.5

Simplifying
y = 0.5
Solution
y = {-3, 0.5}
