Your sequence
-8, 16/3, -32/9, 64/27
is a geometric sequence with first term -8 and common ratio
(16/3)/(-8) = (-32/9)/(16/3) = -2/3
The general term an of a geometric sequence with first term a1 and ratio r is given by
an = a1·r^(n-1)
For your sequence, this is
an = -8·(-2/3)^(n-1)
The Answer is 2

Assuming your solving for y:
py+7=6y+q
-6y -7 -6y -7
(p-6)y = q-7
divide both sides by p-6
y=(q-7)/(p-6)
