-9x+12=3y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-9x=3y-12
Subtract 12 from both sides.
\frac{-9x}{-9}=\frac{3y-12}{-9}
Divide both sides by -9.
x=\frac{3y-12}{-9}
Dividing by -9 undoes the multiplication by -9.
x=\frac{4-y}{3}
Divide -12+3y by -9.
3y=12-9x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{12-9x}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
y=\frac{12-9x}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
y=4-3x
Divide -9x+12 by 3.
