x^{3}+y+2z-\frac{1}{5}y=42x
Subtract \frac{1}{5}y from both sides.
x^{3}+\frac{4}{5}y+2z=42x
Combine y and -\frac{1}{5}y to get \frac{4}{5}y.
\frac{4}{5}y+2z=42x-x^{3}
Subtract x^{3} from both sides.
\frac{4}{5}y=42x-x^{3}-2z
Subtract 2z from both sides.
\frac{4}{5}y=-x^{3}+42x-2z
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\frac{4}{5}y}{\frac{4}{5}}=\frac{-x^{3}+42x-2z}{\frac{4}{5}}
Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{4}{5}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
y=\frac{-x^{3}+42x-2z}{\frac{4}{5}}
Dividing by \frac{4}{5} undoes the multiplication by \frac{4}{5}.
y=-\frac{5x^{3}}{4}+\frac{105x}{2}-\frac{5z}{2}
Divide 42x-x^{3}-2z by \frac{4}{5} by multiplying 42x-x^{3}-2z by the reciprocal of \frac{4}{5}.
