Solve 8x+4y=2

$$8 x + 4 y = 2$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{y}{2}+\frac{1}{4}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 4y from both sides.

$$8x=2-4y$$

Divide both sides by 8.

$$\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{2-4y}{8}$$

Dividing by 8 undoes the multiplication by 8.

$$x=\frac{2-4y}{8}$$

Divide 2-4y by 8.

$$x=-\frac{y}{2}+\frac{1}{4}$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{1}{2}-2x$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 8x from both sides.

$$4y=2-8x$$

Divide both sides by 4.

$$\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{2-8x}{4}$$

Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.

$$y=\frac{2-8x}{4}$$

Divide 2-8x by 4.

$$y=\frac{1}{2}-2x$$
