-\frac{2}{5}x-\frac{6}{5}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-\frac{2}{5}x=y+\frac{6}{5}
Add \frac{6}{5} to both sides.
\frac{-\frac{2}{5}x}{-\frac{2}{5}}=\frac{y+\frac{6}{5}}{-\frac{2}{5}}
Divide both sides of the equation by -\frac{2}{5}, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.
x=\frac{y+\frac{6}{5}}{-\frac{2}{5}}
Dividing by -\frac{2}{5} undoes the multiplication by -\frac{2}{5}.
x=-\frac{5y}{2}-3
Divide y+\frac{6}{5} by -\frac{2}{5} by multiplying y+\frac{6}{5} by the reciprocal of -\frac{2}{5}.
