-3x-9=-6y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-3x=-6y+9
Add 9 to both sides.
-3x=9-6y
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{9-6y}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
x=\frac{9-6y}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
x=2y-3
Divide -6y+9 by -3.
-6y=-3x-9
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-6y}{-6}=\frac{-3x-9}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
y=\frac{-3x-9}{-6}
Dividing by -6 undoes the multiplication by -6.
y=\frac{x+3}{2}
Divide -3x-9 by -6.
