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