Solve x+2y-2=0

$$x + 2 y - 2 = 0$$

Solve for x

$$x=2-2y$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 2y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$x-2=-2y$$

Add 2 to both sides.

$$x=-2y+2$$

Solve for y

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

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$2y-2=-x$$

Add 2 to both sides.

$$2y=-x+2$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$2y=2-x$$

Divide both sides by 2.

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

Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.

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

Divide -x+2 by 2.

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