4x+2=2y
Add 2y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
4x=2y-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{2y-2}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
x=\frac{2y-2}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
x=\frac{y-1}{2}
Divide -2+2y by 4.
-2y+2=-4x
Subtract 4x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-2y=-4x-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{-4x-2}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=\frac{-4x-2}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=2x+1
Divide -4x-2 by -2.
