Answer:


y=(3)/(7)x+4

Explanation:


3x-7y=-28

In order to isolate -7y we need to subtract 3x on both sides.


-3x+3x-7y=-28-3x


-7y=-3x-28

We need our variable y to be alone and positive, therefore, we need to eliminate -7, to do this, we can divide by -7


(-7y)/(-7) =(-3x)/(-7)-(28)/(-7)


y=(3x)/(7)+4
