Answer

$y=18x+12$.

Work Step by Step

The given equation is $\Rightarrow 2+\frac{1}{6}y=3x+4$ Subtract $2$ from each side. $\Rightarrow 2+\frac{1}{6}y-2=3x+4-2$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow \frac{1}{6}y=3x+2$ Multiply each side by $6$. $\Rightarrow 6\cdot \frac{1}{6}y=6\cdot (3x+2)$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow y=18x+12$ Hence, the rewritten literal equation is $y=18x+12$.
