11x+xy+73=5y
Add 5y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
11x+xy=5y-73
Subtract 73 from both sides.
\left(11+y\right)x=5y-73
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(y+11\right)x=5y-73
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(y+11\right)x}{y+11}=\frac{5y-73}{y+11}
Divide both sides by 11+y.
x=\frac{5y-73}{y+11}
Dividing by 11+y undoes the multiplication by 11+y.
xy-5y+73=-11x
Subtract 11x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
xy-5y=-11x-73
Subtract 73 from both sides.
\left(x-5\right)y=-11x-73
Combine all terms containing y.
\frac{\left(x-5\right)y}{x-5}=\frac{-11x-73}{x-5}
Divide both sides by x-5.
y=\frac{-11x-73}{x-5}
Dividing by x-5 undoes the multiplication by x-5.
y=-\frac{11x+73}{x-5}
Divide -11x-73 by x-5.
