9-\frac{2\left(3k-5\right)}{2}y=k
Express 2\times \frac{3k-5}{2} as a single fraction.
9-\left(3k-5\right)y=k
Cancel out 2 and 2.
9-\left(3ky-5y\right)=k
Use the distributive property to multiply 3k-5 by y.
9-3ky+5y=k
To find the opposite of 3ky-5y, find the opposite of each term.
9-3ky+5y-k=0
Subtract k from both sides.
-3ky+5y-k=-9
Subtract 9 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-3ky-k=-9-5y
Subtract 5y from both sides.
\left(-3y-1\right)k=-9-5y
Combine all terms containing k.
\left(-3y-1\right)k=-5y-9
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-3y-1\right)k}{-3y-1}=\frac{-5y-9}{-3y-1}
Divide both sides by -3y-1.
k=\frac{-5y-9}{-3y-1}
Dividing by -3y-1 undoes the multiplication by -3y-1.
k=\frac{5y+9}{3y+1}
Divide -9-5y by -3y-1.
9-\frac{2\left(3k-5\right)}{2}y=k
Express 2\times \frac{3k-5}{2} as a single fraction.
9-\left(3k-5\right)y=k
Cancel out 2 and 2.
9-\left(3ky-5y\right)=k
Use the distributive property to multiply 3k-5 by y.
9-3ky+5y=k
To find the opposite of 3ky-5y, find the opposite of each term.
-3ky+5y=k-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
\left(-3k+5\right)y=k-9
Combine all terms containing y.
\left(5-3k\right)y=k-9
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(5-3k\right)y}{5-3k}=\frac{k-9}{5-3k}
Divide both sides by 5-3k.
y=\frac{k-9}{5-3k}
Dividing by 5-3k undoes the multiplication by 5-3k.
