2x=9y-78
Subtract 78 from both sides.
\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{9y-78}{2}
Divide both sides by 2.
x=\frac{9y-78}{2}
Dividing by 2 undoes the multiplication by 2.
x=\frac{9y}{2}-39
Divide 9y-78 by 2.
9y=2x+78
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{9y}{9}=\frac{2x+78}{9}
Divide both sides by 9.
y=\frac{2x+78}{9}
Dividing by 9 undoes the multiplication by 9.
y=\frac{2x}{9}+\frac{26}{3}
Divide 78+2x by 9.
