Identify the given value and the equation: the value to verify is \(y = -2\), and the equation is \(5y + 4 = 14\).
Substitute the given value \(y = -2\) into the equation in place of \(y\), resulting in \(5(-2) + 4 = 14\).
Simplify the left side by multiplying: \(5 \times (-2) = -10\), so the expression becomes \(-10 + 4\).
Combine like terms on the left side: \(-10 + 4 = -6\).
Compare the simplified left side \(-6\) with the right side \(14\); since they are not equal, conclude that \(y = -2\) is not a solution to the equation.
