Answer

$y=4x-\frac{1}{2}$

Work Step by Step

The given equation is $2y+1-x=7x$ Add $x$ to both sides of the equation to get $2y+1=8x$ Subtract $1$ from both sides of the equation. Then, we have $2y=8x-1$ Divide both sides of the equation by $2$. $\implies y=\frac{8x-1}{2}$ Simplifying, we get $y=4x-\frac{1}{2}$
