6x-3y-5x=5
Subtract 5x from both sides.
x-3y=5
Combine 6x and -5x to get x.
x=5+3y
Add 3y to both sides.
-3y=5x+5-6x
Subtract 6x from both sides.
-3y=-x+5
Combine 5x and -6x to get -x.
-3y=5-x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-3y}{-3}=\frac{5-x}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
y=\frac{5-x}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
y=\frac{x-5}{3}
Divide -x+5 by -3.
