Answer:

g(x)= 4x/5 + 8/5

Explanation:

rewrite the equation as: -5y+2= -4x-6

move all terms not containing y to y=the right side of the equation

subtract 2 from both sides of the equation: -5y=-4x-6-2

subtract 2 from-6: -5y=-4x-8

divide each side by -5 and simplify: -5y=-4x-8 by -5

-5y÷-5 = -4x÷-5 + -8÷-5

now cancel the common factor of -5

divide y by 1: y= -4x/-5+ -8/-5

divide the negative to get the positives: y= (4)x/5 + -8/-5

y= 4x/5 +8/5

I hope this helped sorry if it wasn't what you were looking for.
