xz=5+yz
Add yz to both sides.
zx=yz+5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{zx}{z}=\frac{yz+5}{z}
Divide both sides by z.
x=\frac{yz+5}{z}
Dividing by z undoes the multiplication by z.
x=y+\frac{5}{z}
Divide 5+yz by z.
-yz=5-xz
Subtract xz from both sides.
\left(-z\right)y=5-xz
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-z\right)y}{-z}=\frac{5-xz}{-z}
Divide both sides by -z.
y=\frac{5-xz}{-z}
Dividing by -z undoes the multiplication by -z.
y=x-\frac{5}{z}
Divide 5-xz by -z.
