3x-4y+8=2
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by y-2.
3x+8=2+4y
Add 4y to both sides.
3x=2+4y-8
Subtract 8 from both sides.
3x=-6+4y
Subtract 8 from 2 to get -6.
3x=4y-6
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{4y-6}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{4y-6}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
x=\frac{4y}{3}-2
Divide -6+4y by 3.
3x-4y+8=2
Use the distributive property to multiply -4 by y-2.
-4y+8=2-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-4y=2-3x-8
Subtract 8 from both sides.
-4y=-6-3x
Subtract 8 from 2 to get -6.
-4y=-3x-6
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{-3x-6}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
y=\frac{-3x-6}{-4}
Dividing by -4 undoes the multiplication by -4.
y=\frac{3x}{4}+\frac{3}{2}
Divide -6-3x by -4.
