Question

Solve the following equation for y: 2y + 4x = 8 and please explain how you got the answer. Thank you in advanced.

Answer 1

y = 4 - 2x

2y + 4x = 8

Isolate y. Subtract 4x from both sides

2y = 8 - 4x

Next, you can only divide both sides by 2.

1y = 4 - 2x

You would need the value of x to simplify further.

Explanation:

Hope I helped.

Answer 2

Y=4-2x

Bc: 2y+4x=8
-4x=8-4x
2y = 8-4x
2 = 2
Y = 4-2x
