You asked:

Solve the equation \(\frac{2}{5} + 3 y = -\left( \frac{2}{7} \right)\) for the variable \(y\).

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: \[y = - \frac{8}{35} = -0.2\overline{285714}\]


\[\begin{aligned}3 y + \frac{2}{5} &= - \frac{2}{7}\\3 y &= - \frac{24}{35}\\y &= - \frac{8}{35}\end{aligned}\]
