y\left(-7x+6\right)=4-5x
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{6}{7} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by -7x+6.
-7yx+6y=4-5x
Use the distributive property to multiply y by -7x+6.
-7yx+6y+5x=4
Add 5x to both sides.
-7yx+5x=4-6y
Subtract 6y from both sides.
\left(-7y+5\right)x=4-6y
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(5-7y\right)x=4-6y
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(5-7y\right)x}{5-7y}=\frac{4-6y}{5-7y}
Divide both sides by -7y+5.
x=\frac{4-6y}{5-7y}
Dividing by -7y+5 undoes the multiplication by -7y+5.
x=\frac{2\left(2-3y\right)}{5-7y}
Divide 4-6y by -7y+5.
x=\frac{2\left(2-3y\right)}{5-7y}\text{, }x\neq \frac{6}{7}
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{6}{7}.
