y-0=\frac{6}{5}\left(x+5\right)
The opposite of -5 is 5.
y-0=\frac{6}{5}x+6
Use the distributive property to multiply \frac{6}{5} by x+5.
\frac{6}{5}x+6=y-0
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\frac{6}{5}x=y-0-6
Subtract 6 from both sides.
\frac{6}{5}x=y-6
Reorder the terms.
\frac{\frac{6}{5}x}{\frac{6}{5}}=\frac{y-6}{\frac{6}{5}}
Divide both sides of the equation by \frac{6}{5}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{y-6}{\frac{6}{5}}
Dividing by \frac{6}{5} undoes the multiplication by \frac{6}{5}.
x=\frac{5y}{6}-5
Divide y-6 by \frac{6}{5} by multiplying y-6 by the reciprocal of \frac{6}{5}.
y-0=\frac{6}{5}\left(x+5\right)
The opposite of -5 is 5.
y-0=\frac{6}{5}x+6
Use the distributive property to multiply \frac{6}{5} by x+5.
y=\frac{6}{5}x+6+0
Add 0 to both sides.
y=\frac{6}{5}x+6
Add 6 and 0 to get 6.
