(5y+4)(1-y)=0

Solution for (5y+4)(1-y)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(5y + 4)(1 + -1y) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(4 + 5y)(1 + -1y) = 0

Multiply (4 + 5y) * (1 + -1y)
(4(1 + -1y) + 5y * (1 + -1y)) = 0
((1 * 4 + -1y * 4) + 5y * (1 + -1y)) = 0
((4 + -4y) + 5y * (1 + -1y)) = 0
(4 + -4y + (1 * 5y + -1y * 5y)) = 0
(4 + -4y + (5y + -5y2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -4y + 5y = 1y
(4 + 1y + -5y2) = 0

Solving
4 + 1y + -5y2 = 0

Solving for variable 'y'.
