x-y+z=5

to solve the equation for z

start by substracting x on both sides in order to eliminate x on the left of the equation


\begin{gathered} x-y+z-x=5-x \\ -y+z=5-x \end{gathered}

continue by adding y on both sides in order to eliminate y on the left of the equation


\begin{gathered} -y+z+y=5-x+y \\ z=5-x+y \end{gathered}
