Answer:

y=2x-8

Explanation:

Subtract 4 x from both sides of the equation. − 2 y = 16 − 4 x Divide each term by − 2 and simplify. Tap for fewer steps... Divide each term in − 2 y = 16 − 4 x by − 2 . − 2 y − 2 = 16 − 2 + − 4 x − 2 Cancel the common factor of − 2 . Tap for fewer steps... Cancel the common factor. − 2 y − 2 = 16 − 2 + − 4 x − 2 Divide y by 1 . y = 16 − 2 + − 4 x − 2 Simplify 16 − 2 + − 4 x − 2 . Tap for fewer steps... Simplify each term. Tap for fewer steps... Divide 16 by − 2 . y = − 8 + − 4 x − 2 Cancel the common factor of − 4 and − 2 . Tap for fewer steps... Factor − 2 out of − 4 x . y = − 8 + − 2 ( 2 x ) − 2 Cancel the common factors. Tap for more steps... y = − 8 + 2 x Reorder − 8 and 2 x . y = 2 x − 8
