2x+3y-x=5y
Subtract x from both sides.
x+3y=5y
Combine 2x and -x to get x.
x=5y-3y
Subtract 3y from both sides.
x=2y
Combine 5y and -3y to get 2y.
2x+3y-5y=x
Subtract 5y from both sides.
2x-2y=x
Combine 3y and -5y to get -2y.
-2y=x-2x
Subtract 2x from both sides.
-2y=-x
Combine x and -2x to get -x.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=-\frac{x}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=-\frac{x}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=\frac{x}{2}
Divide -x by -2.
