3x+z=y
Add y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
3x=y-z
Subtract z from both sides.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{y-z}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{y-z}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
-y+z=-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-y=-3x-z
Subtract z from both sides.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{-3x-z}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{-3x-z}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=3x+z
Divide -3x-z by -1.
