3y-24=-x
Subtract x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
3y=-x+24
Add 24 to both sides.
3y=24-x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{24-x}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
y=\frac{24-x}{3}
Dividing by 3 undoes the multiplication by 3.
y=-\frac{x}{3}+8
Divide -x+24 by 3.
