x=-5+2y+1
Add 1 to both sides.
x=-4+2y
Add -5 and 1 to get -4.
-5+2y=-1+x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2y=-1+x+5
Add 5 to both sides.
2y=4+x
Add -1 and 5 to get 4.
2y=x+4
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{x+4}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{x+4}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
y=\frac{x}{2}+2
Divide 4+x by 2.
