2x+10=4\left(y-4x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x+5.
2x+10=4y-16x
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by y-4x.
2x+10+16x=4y
Add 16x to both sides.
18x+10=4y
Combine 2x and 16x to get 18x.
18x=4y-10
Subtract 10 from both sides.
\frac{18x}{18}=\frac{4y-10}{18}
Divide both sides by 18.
x=\frac{4y-10}{18}
Dividing by 18 undoes the multiplication by 18.
x=\frac{2y-5}{9}
Divide 4y-10 by 18.
2x+10=4\left(y-4x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x+5.
2x+10=4y-16x
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by y-4x.
4y-16x=2x+10
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
4y=2x+10+16x
Add 16x to both sides.
4y=18x+10
Combine 2x and 16x to get 18x.
\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{18x+10}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
y=\frac{18x+10}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
y=\frac{9x+5}{2}
Divide 18x+10 by 4.
