-3+2x=\frac{1}{3}y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
2x=\frac{1}{3}y+3
Add 3 to both sides.
2x=\frac{y}{3}+3
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{\frac{y}{3}+3}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{\frac{y}{3}+3}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=\frac{y}{6}+\frac{3}{2}
Divide \frac{y}{3}+3 by 2.
\frac{1}{3}y=2x-3
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\frac{1}{3}y}{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{2x-3}{\frac{1}{3}}
Multiply both sides by 3.
y=\frac{2x-3}{\frac{1}{3}}
Dividing by \frac{1}{3} undoes the multiplication by \frac{1}{3}.
y=6x-9
Divide -3+2x by \frac{1}{3} by multiplying -3+2x by the reciprocal of \frac{1}{3}.
