1-x=y+2
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-x=y+2-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-x=y+1
Subtract 1 from 2 to get 1.
\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{y+1}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=\frac{y+1}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x=-\left(y+1\right)
Divide y+1 by -1.
y=1-x-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
y=-1-x
Subtract 2 from 1 to get -1.
