It's the same as -y = 5x-2, so y= 2-5x
Essentially this is just a linear line that crosses the y axis at y=2 and has a slope of -5, so it is increasing to the left and decreasing to the right by 5 for each value of x.

5x=2-y
add two to both sides
5x-2=-y
multiply both sides by -1
y=2-5x
your equation is going to be a line, and if you set y=0, then
-2=-5x
divide both sides by -5
2/5=x

5x=2-y is a linear function with y-intercept at y=2, x-intercept at x=0.4, and slope m=-5.

5x+y=2, its basically a line equation passing through the points (0.4,0) and (0,2)..having slope = -5...

i think Y= -3, X= 2/5

It is called an equation. That's when we say that "this" equals "that"-------In your example 5x is "this" and 2 - y is "that".
Usually, we'd want to solve this equation, but you didn't ask for that

You are obviously missing part of the question.
