Answer:

-4x + 5y = 40

Explanation:

- move the expression to the left, so you want to get y - 4/5x = 8

- multiply both sides so you get 5y - 4x = 40

- reorder the terms so you get -4x + 5y = 40

personally, I would change the signs afterwards to get 4x - 5y = -40, but the last thing I wrote was what was shown in that picture you sent. hope this helped :)
