5x=-2+y
Add y to both sides.
5x=y-2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{y-2}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=\frac{y-2}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
-y=-2-5x
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-y=-5x-2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{-5x-2}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{-5x-2}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=5x+2
Divide -2-5x by -1.
