-3x+1=-2y
Subtract 2y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-3x=-2y-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{-2y-1}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
x=\frac{-2y-1}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
x=\frac{2y+1}{3}
Divide -2y-1 by -3.
2y+1=3x
Add 3x to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
2y=3x-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{3x-1}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
y=\frac{3x-1}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
