Answer with step-by-step explanation:

If x = -1, we can re-write the equation as -5 - 8y = 29.

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

-5 - 8y = 29

-5 + (-8y) = 29

-8y - 5 = 29

Step 2: Add 5 to both sides.

-8y - 5 + 5 = 29 + 5

-8y = 34

Step 3: Divide both sides by -8.

-8y/-8 = 34/-8

y = -17/4

Hope this helped! (brainliest please)
