\left(3x-3\right)C=y\left(-2x+4\right)
Variable x cannot be equal to 1 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3y\left(x-1\right), the least common multiple of y,3x-3.
3xC-3C=y\left(-2x+4\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3x-3 by C.
3xC-3C=-2yx+4y
Use the distributive property to multiply y by -2x+4.
3xC-3C+2yx=4y
Add 2yx to both sides.
3xC+2yx=4y+3C
Add 3C to both sides.
\left(3C+2y\right)x=4y+3C
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(2y+3C\right)x=4y+3C
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(2y+3C\right)x}{2y+3C}=\frac{4y+3C}{2y+3C}
Divide both sides by 2y+3C.
x=\frac{4y+3C}{2y+3C}
Dividing by 2y+3C undoes the multiplication by 2y+3C.
x=\frac{4y+3C}{2y+3C}\text{, }x\neq 1
Variable x cannot be equal to 1.
