x-xy+25=-y
Subtract y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x-xy=-y-25
Subtract 25 from both sides.
\left(1-y\right)x=-y-25
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(1-y\right)x}{1-y}=\frac{-y-25}{1-y}
Divide both sides by 1-y.
x=\frac{-y-25}{1-y}
Dividing by 1-y undoes the multiplication by 1-y.
x=-\frac{y+25}{1-y}
Divide -y-25 by 1-y.
-xy+y+25=-x
Subtract x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-xy+y=-x-25
Subtract 25 from both sides.
\left(-x+1\right)y=-x-25
Combine all terms containing y.
\left(1-x\right)y=-x-25
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(1-x\right)y}{1-x}=\frac{-x-25}{1-x}
Divide both sides by -x+1.
y=\frac{-x-25}{1-x}
Dividing by -x+1 undoes the multiplication by -x+1.
y=-\frac{x+25}{1-x}
Divide -x-25 by -x+1.
