-y-3=-2z
Subtract 2z from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-y=-2z+3
Add 3 to both sides.
-y=3-2z
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{3-2z}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{3-2z}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=2z-3
Divide -2z+3 by -1.
2z-3=y
Add y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
2z=y+3
Add 3 to both sides.
\frac{2z}{2}=\frac{y+3}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
z=\frac{y+3}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
