-5x-y+2=5x
Anything plus zero gives itself.
-5x-y+2-5x=0
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-10x-y+2=0
Combine -5x and -5x to get -10x.
-10x+2=y
Add y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
-10x=y-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
\frac{-10x}{-10}=\frac{y-2}{-10}
Divide both sides by -10.
x=\frac{y-2}{-10}
Dividing by -10 undoes the multiplication by -10.
x=-\frac{y}{10}+\frac{1}{5}
Divide y-2 by -10.
-5x-y+2=5x
Anything plus zero gives itself.
-y+2=5x+5x
Add 5x to both sides.
-y+2=10x
Combine 5x and 5x to get 10x.
-y=10x-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{10x-2}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{10x-2}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=2-10x
Divide 10x-2 by -1.
