First, subtract 2x from both sides of the equation:
-3y = -2x - 8
Now, divide both sides by -3 to get:
y = (-2x - 8) / -3 <==== FINAL ANSWER
I hope that helps you out! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Sincerely,

2x-3y=-8
add 3y to both sides to get rid of the -3y on the left
2x=3y-8
add 8 to both sides to get rid of the -8 on the right
2x+8=3y
divide both sides by 3 to get y by itself
y=(2/3)x+(8/3)
hope this helps

2x-3y=-8
-3y = -8 -2x
3y = 8 + 2x
y = (8+2x)/3
