x-5=8-2y
Subtract 2y from both sides.
x=8-2y+5
Add 5 to both sides.
x=13-2y
Add 8 and 5 to get 13.
2y-5=8-x
Subtract x from both sides.
2y=8-x+5
Add 5 to both sides.
2y=13-x
Add 8 and 5 to get 13.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{13-x}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{13-x}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
