Question

How do you solve for y given `4x+y=2`?

Answer 1

See the entire solution process below:

Explanation:

Step 1) Subtract `color(red)(4x)` from each side of the equation to solve for `y` while keeping the equation balanced:

`- color(red)(4x) + 4x + y = -color(red)(4x) + 2`

`0 + y = -4x + 2`

`y = -4x + 2`
