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