40x+4y=x+10y+9
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 10x+y.
40x+4y-x=10y+9
Subtract x from both sides.
39x+4y=10y+9
Combine 40x and -x to get 39x.
39x=10y+9-4y
Subtract 4y from both sides.
39x=6y+9
Combine 10y and -4y to get 6y.
\frac{39x}{39}=\frac{6y+9}{39}
Divide both sides by 39.
x=\frac{6y+9}{39}
Dividing by 39 undoes the multiplication by 39.
x=\frac{2y+3}{13}
Divide 6y+9 by 39.
40x+4y=x+10y+9
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 10x+y.
40x+4y-10y=x+9
Subtract 10y from both sides.
40x-6y=x+9
Combine 4y and -10y to get -6y.
-6y=x+9-40x
Subtract 40x from both sides.
-6y=-39x+9
Combine x and -40x to get -39x.
-6y=9-39x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-6y}{-6}=\frac{9-39x}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
y=\frac{9-39x}{-6}
Dividing by -6 undoes the multiplication by -6.
y=\frac{13x-3}{2}
Divide -39x+9 by -6.
