x+7=\left(7+2\right)yx
Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
x+7=9yx
Add 7 and 2 to get 9.
x+7-9yx=0
Subtract 9yx from both sides.
x-9yx=-7
Subtract 7 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(1-9y\right)x=-7
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(1-9y\right)x}{1-9y}=-\frac{7}{1-9y}
Divide both sides by 1-9y.
x=-\frac{7}{1-9y}
Dividing by 1-9y undoes the multiplication by 1-9y.
x=-\frac{7}{1-9y}\text{, }x\neq 0
Variable x cannot be equal to 0.
x+7=\left(7+2\right)yx
Multiply both sides of the equation by x.
x+7=9yx
Add 7 and 2 to get 9.
9yx=x+7
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
9xy=x+7
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{9xy}{9x}=\frac{x+7}{9x}
Divide both sides by 9x.
y=\frac{x+7}{9x}
Dividing by 9x undoes the multiplication by 9x.
y=\frac{1}{9}+\frac{7}{9x}
Divide x+7 by 9x.
