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