Solve for x 4x-y=3

$4 x - y = 3$

Step 1

Add $y$ to both sides of the equation.

$4 x = 3 + y$

Step 2

Divide each term in $4 x = 3 + y$ by $4$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $4 x = 3 + y$ by $4$ .

$\frac{4 x}{4} = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{y}{4}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $4$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{4 x}{4} = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{y}{4}$

Divide $x$ by $1$ .

$x = \frac{3}{4} + \frac{y}{4}$
