Y = mx + b

3y + 2x = 14

Move 2x to other side

Now it becomes negative

3y = -2x + 14

Divide everything by three to isolate y

y = -2x/3 + 14/3

There’s your answer

If rearranging in terms of y,

3y+2x=14

Subtract 2x from both sides of equation

3y=14-2x

Divide both sides of equation by 3


y=(14-2x)/(3)

Simplify 14-2x to 2(7-x) if you want to, meaning that
y=(2(7-x))/(3)
