The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.
If you were to solve the equation it would look like this:
2x+6=3x-8
-3x -3x
-x+6=-8
-6 -6
-x=-14
/-1 /-1
x=14
9 = -7-2y
9 +7=16
16/-2 -2y/-2
-8 = y
Using the distributive property, you can distribute the 7 to y and -4. In other words, multiply the number outside of the parenthesis by each of the numbers in the parentheis.
7*y+7*-4
=7y-28

Answer:
(23/4, 17/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The vector from A to B is ...
... V = B - A = (2-7, 5-4) = (-5, 1)
Point P that divides AB the way you want is 1/4 of that from A:
... P = A + (1/4)×V = (7, 4) + (-5/4, 1/4)
... P = (5 3/4, 4 1/4) = (23/4, 17/4)
Y = - 2x + 4
