y\left(3x+4\right)=3+\left(3x+4\right)\left(-1\right)
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{4}{3} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3x+4.
3yx+4y=3+\left(3x+4\right)\left(-1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply y by 3x+4.
3yx+4y=3-3x-4
Use the distributive property to multiply 3x+4 by -1.
3yx+4y=-1-3x
Subtract 4 from 3 to get -1.
3yx+4y+3x=-1
Add 3x to both sides.
3yx+3x=-1-4y
Subtract 4y from both sides.
\left(3y+3\right)x=-1-4y
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(3y+3\right)x=-4y-1
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(3y+3\right)x}{3y+3}=\frac{-4y-1}{3y+3}
Divide both sides by 3y+3.
x=\frac{-4y-1}{3y+3}
Dividing by 3y+3 undoes the multiplication by 3y+3.
x=-\frac{4y+1}{3\left(y+1\right)}
Divide -1-4y by 3y+3.
x=-\frac{4y+1}{3\left(y+1\right)}\text{, }x\neq -\frac{4}{3}
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{4}{3}.
