4x+7=5y
Add 5y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
4x=5y-7
Subtract 7 from both sides.
\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{5y-7}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
x=\frac{5y-7}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
-5y+7=-4x
Subtract 4x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-5y=-4x-7
Subtract 7 from both sides.
\frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{-4x-7}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
y=\frac{-4x-7}{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
y=\frac{4x+7}{5}
Divide -4x-7 by -5.
