16 - 12x = 4y
First, divide both sides by 4. / Your problem should look like: \(\frac{16-12x}{4}\) = y
Second, factor out the common term 4. / Your problem should look like: \(\frac{4(4-3x)}{4}\) = y
Third, cancel 4. / Your problem should look like: 4 - 3x = y
Fourth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: y = 4 - 3x
Answer: y = 4 - 3x
