To solve for $$ y $$ in the equation

$$
-9 = -14y,
$$

we start by isolating $$ y $$. We can do this by dividing both sides of the equation by $$-14$$:

$$
y = \frac{-9}{-14}.
$$

Since dividing two negative numbers results in a positive number, we simplify the right side:

$$
y = \frac{9}{14}.
$$

Thus, the solution for $$ y $$ in fully simplified form is

$$
\boxed{\frac{9}{14}}.
$$
The solution for $$ y $$ is $$ \frac{9}{14} $$.
