2x-y=2\times 5
Multiply both sides by 5.
2x-y=10
Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.
2x=10+y
Add y to both sides.
2x=y+10
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{y+10}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{y+10}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=\frac{y}{2}+5
Divide 10+y by 2.
2x-y=2\times 5
Multiply both sides by 5.
2x-y=10
Multiply 2 and 5 to get 10.
-y=10-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{10-2x}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{10-2x}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=2x-10
Divide 10-2x by -1.
