x+28y-2x=36y
Subtract 2x from both sides.
-x+28y=36y
Combine x and -2x to get -x.
-x=36y-28y
Subtract 28y from both sides.
-x=8y
Combine 36y and -28y to get 8y.
\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{8y}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=\frac{8y}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x=-8y
Divide 8y by -1.
x+28y-36y=2x
Subtract 36y from both sides.
x-8y=2x
Combine 28y and -36y to get -8y.
-8y=2x-x
Subtract x from both sides.
-8y=x
Combine 2x and -x to get x.
\frac{-8y}{-8}=\frac{x}{-8}
Divide both sides by -8.
y=\frac{x}{-8}
Dividing by -8 undoes the multiplication by -8.
y=-\frac{x}{8}
Divide x by -8.
