Solutions to linear equation in 2 variables

Question

-8x+y=8

Answer 1

-8x + y = 8

y = 8+8x

is the equation solved for y

or

-8x =8-y

x = -1 +y/8

is the equation solved for x

there is an infinite number of points (x,y) that satisfy the equation

such as (0,8) and (-1,0), the two intercepts when the equation is graphed
