y-(-3 times X)-4=0
y-(3 times X) + 2=0
3 times X+y-4=0\ -3 times X -4
y= -(3 times X-4
y=4-(3 times X)
2-( 3 times X)- (3 times X)+4=0
y=4-(3 times X)
6-6 times X =0 \-6
-6 times X= -6 \ : -6
X= -6\(-6) X=1
y=4 - (3 times 1)
y=4-3
The answer is y=1

HOPE IT HELPS:)

Answer: -3x+4 = 3x-2 or 3x-2 = -3x+4
We can flip an equation to have it mean the same thing. Example: x = 5 is the same as 5 = x

The transitive property is the idea where if a = b and b = c, then a = c. Think of it as connecting a chain. Or taking a shortcut. If we know a leads to b, and b leads to c, then we can skip b all together and go from a directly to c.

Same idea applies here: we have -3x+4 equal to y, and y also equal to 3x-2 so -3x+4 = 3x-2
