Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{4}{5}x - \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
So we are trying to put this equation in the form, y = mx + b.
First we add 8x to both sides;
10y = 8x - 5
Divide both sides by 10
y = [tex]\frac{8}{10} x-\frac{5}{10}[/tex]
So we have to reduce the fractions to their lowest terms;
y = [tex]\frac{4}{5}x - \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
