1. **State the problem:** Solve the quadratic equation derived from the expression $(2 - y)^2 = -3y(2 - y)$.
2. **Rewrite the equation:** Expand both sides:
$$ (2 - y)^2 = -3y(2 - y) $$
$$ 4 - 4y + y^2 = -6y + 3y^2 $$
3. **Bring all terms to one side:**
$$ 4 - 4y + y^2 + 6y - 3y^2 = 0 $$
$$ 4 + 2y - 2y^2 = 0 $$
4. **Simplify the equation:**
$$ -2y^2 + 2y + 4 = 0 $$
5. **Divide entire equation by -2 to simplify:**
$$ \cancel{-2}y^2 + \cancel{-2}y + \cancel{-2}2 = 0 \Rightarrow y^2 - y - 2 = 0 $$
6. **Factor the quadratic:**
$$ y^2 - y - 2 = (y - 2)(y + 1) = 0 $$
7. **Solve for $y$:**
$$ y - 2 = 0 \Rightarrow y = 2 $$
$$ y + 1 = 0 \Rightarrow y = -1 $$
**Final answer:** The solutions are $y = 2$ and $y = -1$.
