42x=168+2y
Add 2y to both sides.
42x=2y+168
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{42x}{42}=\frac{2y+168}{42}
Divide both sides by 42.
x=\frac{2y+168}{42}
Dividing by 42 undoes the multiplication by 42.
x=\frac{y}{21}+4
Divide 168+2y by 42.
-2y=168-42x
Subtract 42x from both sides.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{168-42x}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=\frac{168-42x}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=21x-84
Divide 168-42x by -2.
