Solve for y 1+y=-4/5x-2

$1 + y = - \frac{4}{5} x - 2$

Simplify each term.

Combine $x$ and $\frac{4}{5}$ .

$1 + y = - \frac{x \cdot 4}{5} - 2$

Move $4$ to the left of $x$ .

$1 + y = - \frac{4 x}{5} - 2$

Move all terms not containing $y$ to the right side of the equation.

Subtract $1$ from both sides of the equation.

$y = - \frac{4 x}{5} - 2 - 1$

Subtract $1$ from $- 2$ .

$y = - \frac{4 x}{5} - 3$
