mx-12=-5x^{2}
Subtract 5x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
mx=-5x^{2}+12
Add 12 to both sides.
xm=12-5x^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xm}{x}=\frac{12-5x^{2}}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
m=\frac{12-5x^{2}}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
m=-5x+\frac{12}{x}
Divide -5x^{2}+12 by x.
