x\times 0.2-y=y-8
Subtract 8 from both sides.
x\times 0.2=y-8+y
Add y to both sides.
x\times 0.2=2y-8
Combine y and y to get 2y.
0.2x=2y-8
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{0.2x}{0.2}=\frac{2y-8}{0.2}
Multiply both sides by 5.
x=\frac{2y-8}{0.2}
Dividing by 0.2 undoes the multiplication by 0.2.
x=10y-40
Divide -8+2y by 0.2 by multiplying -8+2y by the reciprocal of 0.2.
x\times 0.2+8-y-y=0
Subtract y from both sides.
x\times 0.2+8-2y=0
Combine -y and -y to get -2y.
8-2y=-x\times 0.2
Subtract x\times 0.2 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-2y=-x\times 0.2-8
Subtract 8 from both sides.
-2y=-0.2x-8
Multiply -1 and 0.2 to get -0.2.
-2y=-\frac{x}{5}-8
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{-\frac{x}{5}-8}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=\frac{-\frac{x}{5}-8}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=\frac{x}{10}+4
Divide -\frac{x}{5}-8 by -2.
