Answer:

-0.25y

Explanation:

Simplifying

4x + 1y = 12

Solving

4x + 1y = 12

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1y' to each side of the equation.

4x + 1y + -1y = 12 + -1y

Combine like terms: 1y + -1y = 0

4x + 0 = 12 + -1y

4x = 12 + -1y

Divide each side by '4'.

x = 3 + -0.25y

Simplifying

x = 3 + -0.25y
