Subproblem 1
Set the factor 'a' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
a = 0

Solving
a = 0

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

Simplifying
a = 0
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(6 + -1y)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
6 + -1y = 0

Solving
6 + -1y = 0

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

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -6 + -1y = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + -1y = 0 + -6
-1y = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6
-1y = -6

Add 'y' to each side of the equation.
-1y + y = -6 + y

Combine like terms: -1y + y = 0
0 = -6 + y

Simplifying
0 = -6 + y
