125-\left(5x-5y\right)-\left(x-0.2z\right)\times 7.5=0
Use the distributive property to multiply x-y by 5.
125-5x+5y-\left(x-0.2z\right)\times 7.5=0
To find the opposite of 5x-5y, find the opposite of each term.
125-5x+5y-\left(7.5x-1.5z\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply x-0.2z by 7.5.
125-5x+5y-7.5x+1.5z=0
To find the opposite of 7.5x-1.5z, find the opposite of each term.
125-12.5x+5y+1.5z=0
Combine -5x and -7.5x to get -12.5x.
-12.5x+5y+1.5z=-125
Subtract 125 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-12.5x+1.5z=-125-5y
Subtract 5y from both sides.
-12.5x=-125-5y-1.5z
Subtract 1.5z from both sides.
-12.5x=-\frac{3z}{2}-5y-125
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-12.5x}{-12.5}=\frac{-\frac{3z}{2}-5y-125}{-12.5}
Divide both sides of the equation by -12.5, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{-\frac{3z}{2}-5y-125}{-12.5}
Dividing by -12.5 undoes the multiplication by -12.5.
x=\frac{2y}{5}+\frac{3z}{25}+10
Divide -125-5y-\frac{3z}{2} by -12.5 by multiplying -125-5y-\frac{3z}{2} by the reciprocal of -12.5.
125-\left(5x-5y\right)-\left(x-0.2z\right)\times 7.5=0
Use the distributive property to multiply x-y by 5.
125-5x+5y-\left(x-0.2z\right)\times 7.5=0
To find the opposite of 5x-5y, find the opposite of each term.
125-5x+5y-\left(7.5x-1.5z\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply x-0.2z by 7.5.
125-5x+5y-7.5x+1.5z=0
To find the opposite of 7.5x-1.5z, find the opposite of each term.
125-12.5x+5y+1.5z=0
Combine -5x and -7.5x to get -12.5x.
-12.5x+5y+1.5z=-125
Subtract 125 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
5y+1.5z=-125+12.5x
Add 12.5x to both sides.
5y=-125+12.5x-1.5z
Subtract 1.5z from both sides.
5y=\frac{25x}{2}-\frac{3z}{2}-125
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{\frac{25x}{2}-\frac{3z}{2}-125}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
y=\frac{\frac{25x}{2}-\frac{3z}{2}-125}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
y=\frac{5x}{2}-\frac{3z}{10}-25
Divide -125+\frac{25x}{2}-\frac{3z}{2} by 5.
