-6x=5+2y
Add 2y to both sides.
-6x=2y+5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-6x}{-6}=\frac{2y+5}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
x=\frac{2y+5}{-6}
Dividing by -6 undoes the multiplication by -6.
x=-\frac{y}{3}-\frac{5}{6}
Divide 5+2y by -6.
-2y=5+6x
Add 6x to both sides.
-2y=6x+5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{6x+5}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=\frac{6x+5}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=-3x-\frac{5}{2}
Divide 5+6x by -2.
