10b^{2}-6ab-2b+1=-x^{2}
Subtract x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-6ab-2b+1=-x^{2}-10b^{2}
Subtract 10b^{2} from both sides.
-6ab+1=-x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b
Add 2b to both sides.
-6ab=-x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
\left(-6b\right)a=-x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b-1
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-6b\right)a}{-6b}=\frac{-x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b-1}{-6b}
Divide both sides by -6b.
a=\frac{-x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b-1}{-6b}
Dividing by -6b undoes the multiplication by -6b.
a=\frac{x^{2}+1}{6b}+\frac{5b}{3}-\frac{1}{3}
Divide 2b-1-x^{2}-10b^{2} by -6b.
10b^{2}-6ab-2b+1=-x^{2}
Subtract x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-6ab-2b+1=-x^{2}-10b^{2}
Subtract 10b^{2} from both sides.
-6ab+1=-x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b
Add 2b to both sides.
-6ab=-x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.

Dividing by -6b undoes the multiplication by -6b.
a=\frac{x^{2}+1}{6b}+\frac{5b}{3}-\frac{1}{3}
Divide -x^{2}-10b^{2}+2b-1 by -6b.
