y=z+zx
Use the distributive property to multiply z by 1+x.
z+zx=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
zx=y-z
Subtract z from both sides.
\frac{zx}{z}=\frac{y-z}{z}
Divide both sides by z.
x=\frac{y-z}{z}
Dividing by z undoes the multiplication by z.
x=\frac{y}{z}-1
Divide y-z by z.
y=z+zx
Use the distributive property to multiply z by 1+x.
