-5x+4=3y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-5x=3y-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
\frac{-5x}{-5}=\frac{3y-4}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
x=\frac{3y-4}{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
x=\frac{4-3y}{5}
Divide 3y-4 by -5.
3y=4-5x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{4-5x}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
y=\frac{4-5x}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
