-2x-5z=37-2y
Subtract 2y from both sides.
-2x=37-2y+5z
Add 5z to both sides.
-2x=37+5z-2y
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{37+5z-2y}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=\frac{37+5z-2y}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
x=-\frac{5z}{2}+y-\frac{37}{2}
Divide 37-2y+5z by -2.
2y-5z=37+2x
Add 2x to both sides.
2y=37+2x+5z
Add 5z to both sides.
2y=2x+5z+37
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{2x+5z+37}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{2x+5z+37}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
y=\frac{5z}{2}+x+\frac{37}{2}
Divide 37+2x+5z by 2.
