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