3x-4=5y
Add 5y to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
3x=5y+4
Add 4 to both sides.
\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{5y+4}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
x=\frac{5y+4}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
-5y-4=-3x
Subtract 3x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-5y=-3x+4
Add 4 to both sides.
-5y=4-3x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-5y}{-5}=\frac{4-3x}{-5}
Divide both sides by -5.
y=\frac{4-3x}{-5}
Dividing by -5 undoes the multiplication by -5.
y=\frac{3x-4}{5}
Divide -3x+4 by -5.
