Multiply both numerator and denominator by -1.
-\frac{19}{11}+\frac{9}{11}\sqrt{5}=x\sqrt{5}-y
Divide each term of -19+9\sqrt{5} by 11 to get -\frac{19}{11}+\frac{9}{11}\sqrt{5}.
x\sqrt{5}-y=-\frac{19}{11}+\frac{9}{11}\sqrt{5}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x\sqrt{5}=-\frac{19}{11}+\frac{9}{11}\sqrt{5}+y
Add y to both sides.
\sqrt{5}x=y+\frac{9\sqrt{5}}{11}-\frac{19}{11}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\sqrt{5}x}{\sqrt{5}}=\frac{y+\frac{9\sqrt{5}}{11}-\frac{19}{11}}{\sqrt{5}}
Divide both sides by \sqrt{5}.
x=\frac{y+\frac{9\sqrt{5}}{11}-\frac{19}{11}}{\sqrt{5}}
Dividing by \sqrt{5} undoes the multiplication by \sqrt{5}.
x=\frac{\sqrt{5}y}{5}-\frac{19\sqrt{5}}{55}+\frac{9}{11}
Divide \frac{9\sqrt{5}}{11}+y-\frac{19}{11} by \sqrt{5}.
