-3tx=2x-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
\left(-3x\right)t=2x-5
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-3x\right)t}{-3x}=\frac{2x-5}{-3x}
Divide both sides by -3x.
t=\frac{2x-5}{-3x}
Dividing by -3x undoes the multiplication by -3x.
t=-\frac{2}{3}+\frac{5}{3x}
Divide 2x-5 by -3x.
5-3tx-2x=0
Subtract 2x from both sides.
-3tx-2x=-5
Subtract 5 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(-3t-2\right)x=-5
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(-3t-2\right)x}{-3t-2}=-\frac{5}{-3t-2}
Divide both sides by -3t-2.
x=-\frac{5}{-3t-2}
Dividing by -3t-2 undoes the multiplication by -3t-2.
x=\frac{5}{3t+2}
Divide -5 by -3t-2.
