document.write( "f(x)=-3/4x+6. I start by replacing f(x) with y (y=-3/4x+6) then I interchange the x and y (x=-3/4y+6) from here, I think I am supposed to multiply all terms by 4 (4*x=-3/4x*4+6*4) which would give me 4x=-3y+24. Here is where I need direction. Should I subtract x from both sides? or should I subtract -3y+24 from both sides?
