5x+3y-x=0
Subtract x from both sides.
4x+3y=0
Combine 5x and -x to get 4x.
4x=-3y
Subtract 3y from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\frac{4x}{4}=-\frac{3y}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
x=-\frac{3y}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
3y=x-5x
Subtract 5x from both sides.
3y=-4x
Combine x and -5x to get -4x.
\frac{3y}{3}=-\frac{4x}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
y=-\frac{4x}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
