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