7x-8y-5=-y^{2}
Subtract y^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
7x-5=-y^{2}+8y
Add 8y to both sides.
7x=-y^{2}+8y+5
Add 5 to both sides.
7x=5+8y-y^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{5+8y-y^{2}}{7}
Divide both sides by 7.
x=\frac{5+8y-y^{2}}{7}
Dividing by 7 undoes the multiplication by 7.
