2x=-12+5y
Add 5y to both sides.
2x=5y-12
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{5y-12}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{5y-12}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=\frac{5y}{2}-6
Divide -12+5y by 2.
-5y=-12-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides.
-5y=-2x-12
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{-2x-12}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
y=\frac{-2x-12}{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
y=\frac{2x+12}{5}
Divide -12-2x by -5.
