2x-4=\left(3\times 2+1\right)\left(y-2\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
2x-4=\left(6+1\right)\left(y-2\right)
Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.
2x-4=7\left(y-2\right)
Add 6 and 1 to get 7.
2x-4=7y-14
Use the distributive property to multiply 7 by y-2.
2x=7y-14+4
Add 4 to both sides.
2x=7y-10
Add -14 and 4 to get -10.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{7y-10}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{7y-10}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=\frac{7y}{2}-5
Divide 7y-10 by 2.
2x-4=\left(3\times 2+1\right)\left(y-2\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
2x-4=\left(6+1\right)\left(y-2\right)
Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.
2x-4=7\left(y-2\right)
Add 6 and 1 to get 7.
2x-4=7y-14
Use the distributive property to multiply 7 by y-2.
7y-14=2x-4
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
7y=2x-4+14
Add 14 to both sides.
7y=2x+10
Add -4 and 14 to get 10.
\frac{7y}{7}=\frac{2x+10}{7}
Divide both sides by 7.
y=\frac{2x+10}{7}
Dividing by 7 undoes the multiplication by 7.
