x' = g ( x - v t )      [1]
Divide both sides of the equation by g:
x'/g = x - v t [1.5]
Add vt to both sides of the equation:
x'/g + vt = x,
or swapping sides,
x = x'/g +vt [not 3]

t' = g ( t - v x )
t'/g = t -vx
t = t'/g + vx

x = x'/g + v( t'/g + vx)
   = x'/g + vt'/g + v^2 x
   = (x' + vt')/g + v^2 x 

Hilarious!

ROFLMAO!
