8y+12z-2+3y-4\left(5x-3y-1\right)=9
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 4y+6z-1.
11y+12z-2-4\left(5x-3y-1\right)=9
Combine 8y and 3y to get 11y.
11y+12z-2-20x+12y+4=9
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by 5x-3y-1.
23y+12z-2-20x+4=9
Combine 11y and 12y to get 23y.
23y+12z+2-20x=9
Add -2 and 4 to get 2.
12z+2-20x=9-23y
Subtract 23y from both sides.
2-20x=9-23y-12z
Subtract 12z from both sides.
-20x=9-23y-12z-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
-20x=7-23y-12z
Subtract 2 from 9 to get 7.
-20x=7-12z-23y
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-20x}{-20}=\frac{7-12z-23y}{-20}
Divide both sides by -20.
x=\frac{7-12z-23y}{-20}
Dividing by -20 undoes the multiplication by -20.
x=\frac{3z}{5}+\frac{23y}{20}-\frac{7}{20}
Divide 7-23y-12z by -20.
8y+12z-2+3y-4\left(5x-3y-1\right)=9
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 4y+6z-1.
11y+12z-2-4\left(5x-3y-1\right)=9
Combine 8y and 3y to get 11y.
11y+12z-2-20x+12y+4=9
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by 5x-3y-1.
23y+12z-2-20x+4=9
Combine 11y and 12y to get 23y.
23y+12z+2-20x=9
Add -2 and 4 to get 2.
23y+2-20x=9-12z
Subtract 12z from both sides.
23y-20x=9-12z-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
23y-20x=7-12z
Subtract 2 from 9 to get 7.
23y=7-12z+20x
Add 20x to both sides.
23y=20x-12z+7
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{23y}{23}=\frac{20x-12z+7}{23}
Divide both sides by 23.
y=\frac{20x-12z+7}{23}
Dividing by 23 undoes the multiplication by 23.
