8x-2\times 8y=-64
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, the least common multiple of 4,2.
8x-16y=-64
Multiply -2 and 8 to get -16.
8x=-64+16y
Add 16y to both sides.
8x=16y-64
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{16y-64}{8}
Divide both sides by 8.
x=\frac{16y-64}{8}
Dividing by 8 undoes the multiplication by 8.
x=2y-8
Divide -64+16y by 8.
8x-2\times 8y=-64
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, the least common multiple of 4,2.
8x-16y=-64
Multiply -2 and 8 to get -16.
-16y=-64-8x
Subtract 8x from both sides.
-16y=-8x-64
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-16y}{-16}=\frac{-8x-64}{-16}
Divide both sides by -16.
y=\frac{-8x-64}{-16}
Dividing by -16 undoes the multiplication by -16.
y=\frac{x}{2}+4
Divide -64-8x by -16.
