Explanation:

To solve for \(y\) in the equation \(X = 4y - 12\), you need to isolate \(y\). Follow these steps:

1. **Add 12 to both sides of the equation:**

\[ X + 12 = 4y \]

2. **Divide both sides by 4:**

\[ \frac{{X + 12}}{4} = y \]

So, the solution for \(y\) is:

\[ y = \frac{{X + 12}}{4} \]
