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