Answer:

  y = -3x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Any "solve for" problem involves inverse operations. You want to "undo" what has been done to the variable of interest. Generally, we're undoing multiplication or addition.

__

It can help to simplify the equation first:

  x -(y +2) = 2(2x +1)

 x -y -2 = 4x +2 . . . . eliminate parentheses using the distributive property

To get y by itself, we can undo the addition of (x -2) by subtracting that from both sides.

  -y = (4x +2) -(x -2)

  -y = 3x +4

To "undo" the multiplication of y by -1, we can multiply by the reciprocal of that, which is -1.

  (-y)(-1) = (-1)(3x +4)

  y = -3x -4

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Here, we simplified the equation first. That's not always necessary or desirable. <em>The first step is to look at what you have and make a plan</em>. Here, y is in parentheses, so part of the plan will be to eliminate those parentheses.

Answer:

y = -3x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y - 2 = 4x + 2

x - y - 2 + y = 4x + 2 + y

x - 2 = 4x + 2 + y

x - 2 - 4x - 2 = 4x + 2 + y - 4x - 2

-3x - 4 = y

so y = -3x - 4

It's C.  In order to be in standard form you have to have all your exponents in descending order.  They don't all have to be there in order, the ones that are just have to go from highest to lowest.
