y=zx-z
Use the distributive property to multiply z by x-1.
zx-z=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
zx=y+z
Add z to 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.
y=zx-z
Use the distributive property to multiply z by x-1.
