y^{2}-8x+11=0
Add 2 and 9 to get 11.
-8x+11=-y^{2}
Subtract y^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-8x=-y^{2}-11
Subtract 11 from both sides.
\frac{-8x}{-8}=\frac{-y^{2}-11}{-8}
Divide both sides by -8.
x=\frac{-y^{2}-11}{-8}
Dividing by -8 undoes the multiplication by -8.
x=\frac{y^{2}+11}{8}
Divide -y^{2}-11 by -8.
