y=8x+5 solve for x

1 answer

To solve for x in the equation y = 8x + 5, we need to isolate x by moving all terms not containing x to the other side of the equation.

y = 8x + 5
Subtract 5 from both sides:
y - 5 = 8x
Divide by 8 on both sides to isolate x:
(x) = (y - 5) / 8

Therefore, x = (y - 5) / 8.
