x-y-4x=0
Subtract 4x from both sides.
-3x-y=0
Combine x and -4x to get -3x.
-3x=y
Add y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{y}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
x=\frac{y}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
x=-\frac{y}{3}
Divide y by -3.
-y=4x-x
Subtract x from both sides.
-y=3x
Combine 4x and -x to get 3x.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{3x}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{3x}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=-3x
Divide 3x by -1.
