Simplify 12x12x to x2x2
x2−34y=−2x2−34y=−2
2 Simplify 34y34y to 3y43y4
x2−3y4=−2x2−3y4=−2
3 Subtract x2x2 from both sides
−3y4=−2−x2−3y4=−2−x2
4 Multiply both sides by 44
−3y=(−2−x2)×4−3y=(−2−x2)×4
5 Regroup terms
−3y=4(−2−x2)−3y=4(−2−x2)
6 Divide both sides by −3−3
y=4(−2−x2)−3y=4(−2−x2)−3
7 Simplify 4(−2−x2)−34(−2−x2)−3 to −4(−2−x2)3−4(−2−x2)3
y=−4(−2−x2)3
