\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{-25y-7}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
x=\frac{-25y-7}{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
x=5y+\frac{7}{5}
Divide -25y-7 by -5.
-25y=7-5x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-25y}{-25}=\frac{7-5x}{-25}
Divide both sides by -25.
y=\frac{7-5x}{-25}
Dividing by -25 undoes the multiplication by -25.
y=\frac{x}{5}-\frac{7}{25}
Divide -5x+7 by -25.
