-2x=-5-3y
Subtract 3y from both sides.
-2x=-3y-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{-3y-5}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=\frac{-3y-5}{-2}
Dividing by -2 undoes the multiplication by -2.
x=\frac{3y+5}{2}
Divide -5-3y by -2.
3y=-5+2x
Add 2x to both sides.
3y=2x-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{2x-5}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
y=\frac{2x-5}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
