-20k+25=-p^{2}
Subtract p^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-20k=-p^{2}-25
Subtract 25 from both sides.
\frac{-20k}{-20}=\frac{-p^{2}-25}{-20}
Divide both sides by -20.
k=\frac{-p^{2}-25}{-20}
Dividing by -20 undoes the multiplication by -20.
k=\frac{p^{2}}{20}+\frac{5}{4}
Divide -p^{2}-25 by -20.
