-\frac{3}{4}x+5=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-\frac{3}{4}x=y-5
Subtract 5 from both sides.
\frac{-\frac{3}{4}x}{-\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{y-5}{-\frac{3}{4}}
Divide both sides of the equation by -\frac{3}{4}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{y-5}{-\frac{3}{4}}
Dividing by -\frac{3}{4} undoes the multiplication by -\frac{3}{4}.
x=\frac{20-4y}{3}
Divide y-5 by -\frac{3}{4} by multiplying y-5 by the reciprocal of -\frac{3}{4}.
