Answer:

y = -3 +1x/2

Explanation:

2x - 4y = 12

-4y = 12 -2x

y = 12/-4 - 2x/-4

y = -3 +x/2

Answer:

So basically you solve for y

so its gonna be -4y = 12-2x, then divide everything by -4 to solve for y which will be equal to -3 + 1/2x

just write it as 1/2x -3 cause its better

Hope that answers your question
