x-15=y
Add y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=y+15
Add 15 to both sides.
-y-15=-x
Subtract x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-y=-x+15
Add 15 to both sides.
-y=15-x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{15-x}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{15-x}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
y=x-15
Divide -x+15 by -1.
