Do you want to solve for y


4x+-+10y+=+11 Start with the given equation


-10y=11-4x Subtract 4x from both sides


-10y=-4x%2B11 Rearrange the equation


y=%28-4x%2B11%29%2F%28-10%29 Divide both sides by -10


y=%28%28-4%29%2F%28-10%29%29x%2B%2811%29%2F%28-10%29 Break up the fraction


y=%282%2F5%29x-11%2F10 Reduce
