x=2y+5+9
Add 9 to both sides.
x=2y+14
Add 5 and 9 to get 14.
2y+5=x-9
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2y=x-9-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
2y=x-14
Subtract 5 from -9 to get -14.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{x-14}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{x-14}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
y=\frac{x}{2}-7
Divide x-14 by 2.
