-5-8x=-8y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-8x=-8y+5
Add 5 to both sides.
-8x=5-8y
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-8x}{-8}=\frac{5-8y}{-8}
Divide both sides by -8.
x=\frac{5-8y}{-8}
Dividing by -8 undoes the multiplication by -8.
x=y-\frac{5}{8}
Divide -8y+5 by -8.
-8y=-8x-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-8y}{-8}=\frac{-8x-5}{-8}
Divide both sides by -8.
y=\frac{-8x-5}{-8}
Dividing by -8 undoes the multiplication by -8.
y=x+\frac{5}{8}
Divide -5-8x by -8.
