\(6(y + 1) \,=\, 7(x - 2)\)
Divide both sides of the equation by 7 .
\(\frac67(y + 1)\, =\, x - 2\)
Add 2 to both sides of the equation.
\(\frac67(y + 1)+2\, =\, x\)
We could stop here, but let's simplify it.
\(x\,=\,\frac67(y + 1)+2\)
Distribute \(\frac67\) to the terms in parenthesees.
\(x\,=\,\frac67y + \frac67+2\)
Add \(\frac67+2\)
\(x\,=\,\frac67y + \frac67+\frac{14}{7}\\~\\ x\,=\,\frac67y + \frac{20}{7}\)
.
