50g

If an equation like x+y=z is solved for x, the calculator gives x=-(y-
z) because it likes to keep the variables in alphabetical order.  
What's the best way to get it to simplify the solution to x=z-y?

If you set flag -114 and then do SOLVEX, I think you'll get what you want.

That does the trick.  Thanks.
