Solve -x-5y-26=0

$$- x - 5 y - 26 = 0$$

Solve for x

$$x=-5y-26$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add 5y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

$$-x-26=5y$$

Add 26 to both sides.

$$-x=5y+26$$

Divide both sides by -1.

$$\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{5y+26}{-1}$$

Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.

$$x=\frac{5y+26}{-1}$$

Divide 5y+26 by -1.

$$x=-5y-26$$

Solve for y

$$y=\frac{-x-26}{5}$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add x to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

$$-5y-26=x$$

Add 26 to both sides.

$$-5y=x+26$$

Divide both sides by -5.

$$\frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{x+26}{-5}$$

Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.

$$y=\frac{x+26}{-5}$$

Divide x+26 by -5.

$$y=\frac{-x-26}{5}$$
