Answer:

x = 2y + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

     [tex]\frac{x}{2} - 8 = y[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{2} - 8 + 8 = y + 8[/tex]                   (adding 8 to both sides)

           [tex]\frac{x}{2} = y + 8[/tex]

         [tex]\frac{x * 2}{2} = (y + 8)*2[/tex]           (multiplying both sides by 2)

            [tex]x = 2y + 8 * 2[/tex]

            [tex]x = 2y + 16[/tex]

Happy to help :)
