5x-3z=-2y
Subtract 2y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
5x=-2y+3z
Add 3z to both sides.
5x=3z-2y
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{3z-2y}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=\frac{3z-2y}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
2y-3z=-5x
Subtract 5x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
2y=-5x+3z
Add 3z to both sides.
2y=3z-5x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{3z-5x}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{3z-5x}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
