2x-2-3x\left(y-4\right)=0
Multiply -1 and 3 to get -3.
2x-2-3xy+12x=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -3x by y-4.
14x-2-3xy=0
Combine 2x and 12x to get 14x.
14x-3xy=2
Add 2 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\left(14-3y\right)x=2
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(14-3y\right)x}{14-3y}=\frac{2}{14-3y}
Divide both sides by -3y+14.
x=\frac{2}{14-3y}
Dividing by -3y+14 undoes the multiplication by -3y+14.
2x-2-3x\left(y-4\right)=0
Multiply -1 and 3 to get -3.
2x-2-3xy+12x=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -3x by y-4.
14x-2-3xy=0
Combine 2x and 12x to get 14x.
-2-3xy=-14x
Subtract 14x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-3xy=-14x+2
Add 2 to both sides.
\left(-3x\right)y=2-14x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-3x\right)y}{-3x}=\frac{2-14x}{-3x}
Divide both sides by -3x.
y=\frac{2-14x}{-3x}
Dividing by -3x undoes the multiplication by -3x.
y=\frac{14}{3}-\frac{2}{3x}
Divide -14x+2 by -3x.
