Answer 4

8x-2y-5=11

Move all terms not containing y to the right-hand side of the equation.
-2y=-8x+5+11

Add 11 to 5 to get 16.
-2y=-8x+16

Divide each term in the equation by -2.
-(2y)/(-2)=-(8x)/(-2)+(16)/(-2)

Simplify the left-hand side of the equation by canceling the common factors.
y=-(8x)/(-2)+(16)/(-2)

Simplify the right-hand side of the equation by simplifying each term.
y=4x-8
