preferrably want help on how to remove the 2a+b

i look so dumb lol

[gritty crypt]

You don't "remove" anything. What does it mean to "make x the subject"?

[plush jackal]

isolate x

for example put x on one side without anything

so like x = 4a+b

[gritty crypt]

Right, but does it matter which side?

[plush jackal]

[gritty crypt]
