Do you want to solve for y?


7x%2B4y=2 Start with the given equation.


4y=2-7x Subtract 7x from both sides.


4y=-7x%2B2 Rearrange the terms.


y=%28-7x%2B2%29%2F%284%29 Divide both sides by 4 to isolate y.


y=%28%28-7%29%2F%284%29%29x%2B%282%29%2F%284%29 Break up the fraction.


y=-%287%2F4%29x%2B1%2F2 Reduce.
