4-x+2y=u
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-x+2y=u-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
-x=u-4-2y
Subtract 2y from both sides.
-x=-2y+u-4
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{-2y+u-4}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=\frac{-2y+u-4}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x=2y-u+4
Divide u-4-2y by -1.
