y\left(5x+3\right)=3x+5
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{3}{5} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 5x+3.
5yx+3y=3x+5
Use the distributive property to multiply y by 5x+3.
5yx+3y-3x=5
Subtract 3x from both sides.
5yx-3x=5-3y
Subtract 3y from both sides.
\left(5y-3\right)x=5-3y
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(5y-3\right)x}{5y-3}=\frac{5-3y}{5y-3}
Divide both sides by 5y-3.
x=\frac{5-3y}{5y-3}
Dividing by 5y-3 undoes the multiplication by 5y-3.
x=\frac{5-3y}{5y-3}\text{, }x\neq -\frac{3}{5}
Variable x cannot be equal to -\frac{3}{5}.
