xy-11-3x=6
Subtract 3x from both sides.
xy-3x=6+11
Add 11 to both sides.
xy-3x=17
Add 6 and 11 to get 17.
\left(y-3\right)x=17
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(y-3\right)x}{y-3}=\frac{17}{y-3}
Divide both sides by y-3.
x=\frac{17}{y-3}
Dividing by y-3 undoes the multiplication by y-3.
xy=3x+6+11
Add 11 to both sides.
xy=3x+17
Add 6 and 11 to get 17.
\frac{xy}{x}=\frac{3x+17}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
y=\frac{3x+17}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
y=3+\frac{17}{x}
Divide 3x+17 by x.
