Answer:

[tex]y = 2x - 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

We need to leave y-term as the subject of equation.

[tex] - 4y = 20 - 8x[/tex]

Move 8x to subtract.

[tex]y = \frac{20 - 8x}{ - 4} [/tex]

Pull the negative out of 4.

[tex]y = - \frac{20 + 8x}{4} [/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y = - \frac{20}{4} + \frac{8x}{4} \\ y = - 5 + 2x[/tex]

Swap x-term and constant.

[tex]y = 2x - 5[/tex]
