y\left(4x+1\right)=2x+24-1
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{1}{4} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 4x+1.
4yx+y=2x+24-1
Use the distributive property to multiply y by 4x+1.
4yx+y=2x+23
Subtract 1 from 24 to get 23.
4yx+y-2x=23
Subtract 2x from both sides.
4yx-2x=23-y
Subtract y from both sides.
\left(4y-2\right)x=23-y
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(4y-2\right)x}{4y-2}=\frac{23-y}{4y-2}
Divide both sides by 4y-2.
x=\frac{23-y}{4y-2}
Dividing by 4y-2 undoes the multiplication by 4y-2.
x=\frac{23-y}{2\left(2y-1\right)}
Divide 23-y by 4y-2.
x=\frac{23-y}{2\left(2y-1\right)}\text{, }x\neq -\frac{1}{4}
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{1}{4}.
