y=\frac{\sqrt{3}\left(2x-4\right)}{2}
Express \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\left(2x-4\right) as a single fraction.
y=\frac{2\sqrt{3}x-4\sqrt{3}}{2}
Use the distributive property to multiply \sqrt{3} by 2x-4.
y=-2\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{3}x
Divide each term of 2\sqrt{3}x-4\sqrt{3} by 2 to get -2\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{3}x.
-2\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{3}x=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\sqrt{3}x=y+2\sqrt{3}
Add 2\sqrt{3} to both sides.
\frac{\sqrt{3}x}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{y+2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}
Divide both sides by \sqrt{3}.
x=\frac{y+2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}
Dividing by \sqrt{3} undoes the multiplication by \sqrt{3}.
x=\frac{\sqrt{3}y}{3}+2
Divide y+2\sqrt{3} by \sqrt{3}.
y=\frac{\sqrt{3}\left(2x-4\right)}{2}
Express \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\left(2x-4\right) as a single fraction.
y=\frac{2\sqrt{3}x-4\sqrt{3}}{2}
Use the distributive property to multiply \sqrt{3} by 2x-4.
y=-2\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{3}x
Divide each term of 2\sqrt{3}x-4\sqrt{3} by 2 to get -2\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{3}x.
