Answer
$y=x-3$.
Work Step by Step
The given equation is
$\Rightarrow 4x-5=7+4y$
Subtract $7$ from each side.
$\Rightarrow 4x-5-7=7+4y-7$
Simplify.
$\Rightarrow 4x-12=4y$
Divide both sides by $4$.
$\Rightarrow \frac{4x-12}{4}=\frac{4y}{4}$
Simplify.
$\Rightarrow x-3=y$
Hence, the rewritten literal equation is $y=x-3$.
