5x=125+y
Add y to both sides.
5x=y+125
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{y+125}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=\frac{y+125}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
x=\frac{y}{5}+25
Divide 125+y by 5.
-y=125-5x
Subtract 5x from both sides.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{125-5x}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{125-5x}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=5x-125
Divide 125-5x by -1.
