\sqrt{8-2x}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-2x+8=y^{2}
Square both sides of the equation.
-2x+8-8=y^{2}-8
Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.
-2x=y^{2}-8
Subtracting 8 from itself leaves 0.
\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{y^{2}-8}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=\frac{y^{2}-8}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
x=-\frac{y^{2}}{2}+4
Divide y^{2}-8 by -2.
