Solve 4a-2b=-3

$$4 a - 2 b = - 3$$

Solve for a

$$a=\frac{b}{2}-\frac{3}{4}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 2b to both sides.

$$4a=-3+2b$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$4a=2b-3$$

Divide both sides by 4.

$$\frac{4a}{4}=\frac{2b-3}{4}$$

Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.

$$a=\frac{2b-3}{4}$$

Divide -3+2b by 4.

$$a=\frac{b}{2}-\frac{3}{4}$$

Solve for b

$$b=2a+\frac{3}{2}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 4a from both sides.

$$-2b=-3-4a$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$-2b=-4a-3$$

Divide both sides by -2.

$$\frac{-2b}{-2}=\frac{-4a-3}{-2}$$

Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.

$$b=\frac{-4a-3}{-2}$$

Divide -3-4a by -2.

$$b=2a+\frac{3}{2}$$
