Step 1.1

Subtract $x$ from both sides of the equation.

$2 y + 4 = - x$

Step 1.2

Subtract $4$ from both sides of the equation.

$2 y = - x - 4$

Step 2

Divide each term in $2 y = - x - 4$ by $2$ and simplify.

Step 2.3.1.1

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{x}{2} + \frac{- 4}{2}$

Step 2.3.1.2

Divide $- 4$ by $2$ .

$y = - \frac{x}{2} - 2$

Step 3

The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.
