2x+2y-8x=0
Subtract 8x from both sides.
-6x+2y=0
Combine 2x and -8x to get -6x.
-6x=-2y
Subtract 2y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{-6x}{-6}=-\frac{2y}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
x=-\frac{2y}{-6}
Dividing by -6 undoes the multiplication by -6.
x=\frac{y}{3}
Divide -2y by -6.
2y=8x-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides.
2y=6x
Combine 8x and -2x to get 6x.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{6x}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{6x}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
y=3x
Divide 6x by 2.
