2x-7=y
Add y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
2x=y+7
Add 7 to both sides.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{y+7}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{y+7}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
-y-7=-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-y=-2x+7
Add 7 to both sides.
-y=7-2x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{7-2x}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{7-2x}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=2x-7
Divide -2x+7 by -1.
