Simplifying
4x + 4y = 0

Solving
4x + 4y = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4y' to each side of the equation.
4x + 4y + -4y = 0 + -4y

Combine like terms:
4y + -4y = 0
4x + 0 = 0 + -4y
4x = 0 + -4y

Remove the zero:
4x = -4y

Divide each side by '4'.
x = -1y

Simplifying
x = -1y
