Question

Given the equation 2x+2/y=4w+2 what is the value of x?

Answer 1

`2x+ (2)/(y)=4w+2`

Our goal is to isolate x.

First we subtract
`(2)/(y)` on both sides of the equation.


`2x=4w+2- (2)/(y)`

Then divide 2 on both sides.


`2x= 4wy+2y-2`

Then divide 2 on both sides.


`x= (2wy+y-1)/(y)`
