-x-y=z
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-x=z+y
Add y to both sides.
-x=y+z
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{y+z}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x=\frac{y+z}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x=-\left(y+z\right)
Divide z+y by -1.
-x-y=z
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-y=z+x
Add x to both sides.
-y=x+z
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-y}{-1}=\frac{x+z}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
y=\frac{x+z}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
