20x-25=15y
Add 15y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
20x=15y+25
Add 25 to both sides.
\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{15y+25}{20}
Divide both sides by 20.
x=\frac{15y+25}{20}
Dividing by 20 undoes the multiplication by 20.
x=\frac{3y+5}{4}
Divide 15y+25 by 20.
-15y-25=-20x
Subtract 20x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-15y=-20x+25
Add 25 to both sides.
-15y=25-20x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-15y}{-15}=\frac{25-20x}{-15}
Divide both sides by -15.
y=\frac{25-20x}{-15}
Dividing by -15 undoes the multiplication by -15.
y=\frac{4x-5}{3}
Divide -20x+25 by -15.
