To solve the equation $\frac {3}{y+8}=\frac {2}{y-6}$, we can cross-multiply to get rid of the fractions:<br /><br />$3(y-6) = 2(y+8)$<br /><br />Expanding both sides, we have:<br /><br />$3y - 18 = 2y + 16$<br /><br />Subtracting $2y$ from both sides, we get:<br /><br />$y - 18 = 16$<br /><br />Adding 18 to both sides, we have:<br /><br />$y = 34$<br /><br />Therefore, the solution is $y = 34$.
