4x+8z=7y
Add 7y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
4x=7y-8z
Subtract 8z from both sides.
\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{7y-8z}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
x=\frac{7y-8z}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
x=\frac{7y}{4}-2z
Divide 7y-8z by 4.
-7y+8z=-4x
Subtract 4x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-7y=-4x-8z
Subtract 8z from both sides.
\frac{-7y}{-7}=\frac{-4x-8z}{-7}
Divide both sides by -7.
y=\frac{-4x-8z}{-7}
Dividing by -7 undoes the multiplication by -7.
y=\frac{4x+8z}{7}
Divide -4x-8z by -7.
