-9x=5-3y
Subtract 3y from both sides.
\frac{-9x}{-9}=\frac{5-3y}{-9}
Divide both sides by -9.
x=\frac{5-3y}{-9}
Dividing by -9 undoes the multiplication by -9.
x=\frac{y}{3}-\frac{5}{9}
Divide 5-3y by -9.
3y=5+9x
Add 9x to both sides.
3y=9x+5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{9x+5}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
y=\frac{9x+5}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
y=3x+\frac{5}{3}
Divide 5+9x by 3.
