16x+8=-2y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
16x=-2y-8
Subtract 8 from both sides.
\frac{16x}{16}=\frac{-2y-8}{16}
Divide both sides by 16.
x=\frac{-2y-8}{16}
Dividing by 16 undoes the multiplication by 16.
x=-\frac{y}{8}-\frac{1}{2}
Divide -2y-8 by 16.
-2y=16x+8
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{16x+8}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=\frac{16x+8}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=-8x-4
Divide 16x+8 by -2.
