Answer

$y=4-2x$ (x solutions listed below)

Work Step by Step

We first isolate y by subtracting by 4x on both sides to get that $2y=8-4x$. We now divide by 2 on both sides to isolate y and get that: $y=4-2x$. We then plug in the different values of x: $y=4-2(-2)=8 \\\\ y=4-2(1)=2 \\\\ y=4-2(3)=-2$
