Answer:

(B) y=5/4x-2

Explanation:

First, add 5x to both sides. That will make the equation 4y=5x-8.

Then divide both sides by 4 to get: y=5/4x-2.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

y=(5/4)x-2

Explanation:

Rearrange this equation into slope intercept form (y=mx+b):

4y=5x-8

Divide every term by 4:

y=(5/4)x-8/4

y=(5/4)x-2
