3x=17+2y
Add 2y to both sides.
3x=2y+17
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{2y+17}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{2y+17}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
-2y=17-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides.
\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{17-3x}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
y=\frac{17-3x}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
y=\frac{3x-17}{2}
Divide 17-3x by -2.
