2x-5-30y=18
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
2x-30y=18+5
Add 5 to both sides.
2x-30y=23
Add 18 and 5 to get 23.
2x=23+30y
Add 30y to both sides.
2x=30y+23
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{30y+23}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{30y+23}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=15y+\frac{23}{2}
Divide 23+30y by 2.
2x-5-30y=18
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
-5-30y=18-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides.
-30y=18-2x+5
Add 5 to both sides.
-30y=23-2x
Add 18 and 5 to get 23.
\frac{-30y}{-30}=\frac{23-2x}{-30}
Divide both sides by -30.
y=\frac{23-2x}{-30}
Dividing by -30 undoes the multiplication by -30.
y=\frac{x}{15}-\frac{23}{30}
Divide 23-2x by -30.
