7y-yx-3\left(x-2\right)=4\left(x-3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply y by 7-x.
7y-yx-3x+6=4\left(x-3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x-2.
7y-yx-3x+6=4x-12
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x-3.
7y-yx-3x+6-4x=-12
Subtract 4x from both sides.
7y-yx-7x+6=-12
Combine -3x and -4x to get -7x.
-yx-7x+6=-12-7y
Subtract 7y from both sides.
-yx-7x=-12-7y-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
-yx-7x=-18-7y
Subtract 6 from -12 to get -18.
\left(-y-7\right)x=-18-7y
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(-y-7\right)x=-7y-18
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-y-7\right)x}{-y-7}=\frac{-7y-18}{-y-7}
Divide both sides by -y-7.
x=\frac{-7y-18}{-y-7}
Dividing by -y-7 undoes the multiplication by -y-7.
x=\frac{7y+18}{y+7}
Divide -18-7y by -y-7.
7y-yx-3\left(x-2\right)=4\left(x-3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply y by 7-x.
7y-yx-3x+6=4\left(x-3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x-2.
7y-yx-3x+6=4x-12
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x-3.
7y-yx+6=4x-12+3x
Add 3x to both sides.
7y-yx+6=7x-12
Combine 4x and 3x to get 7x.
7y-yx=7x-12-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
7y-yx=7x-18
Subtract 6 from -12 to get -18.
\left(7-x\right)y=7x-18
Combine all terms containing y.
\frac{\left(7-x\right)y}{7-x}=\frac{7x-18}{7-x}
Divide both sides by 7-x.
y=\frac{7x-18}{7-x}
Dividing by 7-x undoes the multiplication by 7-x.
