Equation: 4X+2X-Y=2X+2, find the value of Y at X=2.
We can solve the equation after rearranging it as, Y=4X-2;
Is it possible to solve the equation in matlab without rearranging??

Although I don't see why you would even bother to do it without rearranging, it is easily possible if you have the symbolic toolbox:
y = sym('y');
x = 2;
y = solve(4*x+2*x-y == 2*x+2, y);
