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