5x=y_{2}
Add y_{2} to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
\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. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{-y_{2}}{-1}=-\frac{5x}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y_{2}=-\frac{5x}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y_{2}=5x
Divide -5x by -1.
