10x-4y=-9
Subtract 9 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
10x=-9+4y
Add 4y to both sides.
10x=4y-9
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{4y-9}{10}
Divide both sides by 10.
x=\frac{4y-9}{10}
Dividing by 10 undoes the multiplication by 10.
x=\frac{2y}{5}-\frac{9}{10}
Divide -9+4y by 10.
10x-4y=-9
Subtract 9 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-4y=-9-10x
Subtract 10x from both sides.
-4y=-10x-9
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{-10x-9}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
y=\frac{-10x-9}{-4}
Dividing by -4 undoes the multiplication by -4.
y=\frac{5x}{2}+\frac{9}{4}
Divide -9-10x by -4.
