px+q=-2x^{2}
Subtract 2x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
px=-2x^{2}-q
Subtract q from both sides.
xp=-2x^{2}-q
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xp}{x}=\frac{-2x^{2}-q}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
p=\frac{-2x^{2}-q}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
p=-2x-\frac{q}{x}
Divide -2x^{2}-q by x.
px+q=-2x^{2}
Subtract 2x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
px=-2x^{2}-q
Subtract q from both sides.
