y\left(5x-6\right)=3x-2
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{6}{5} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 5x-6.
5yx-6y=3x-2
Use the distributive property to multiply y by 5x-6.
5yx-6y-3x=-2
Subtract 3x from both sides.
5yx-3x=-2+6y
Add 6y to both sides.
\left(5y-3\right)x=-2+6y
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(5y-3\right)x=6y-2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(5y-3\right)x}{5y-3}=\frac{6y-2}{5y-3}
Divide both sides by 5y-3.
x=\frac{6y-2}{5y-3}
Dividing by 5y-3 undoes the multiplication by 5y-3.
x=\frac{2\left(3y-1\right)}{5y-3}
Divide -2+6y by 5y-3.
x=\frac{2\left(3y-1\right)}{5y-3}\text{, }x\neq \frac{6}{5}
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{6}{5}.
