y=2-\left(xe^{-5}-3e^{-5}\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply x-3 by e^{-5}.
y=2-xe^{-5}+3e^{-5}
To find the opposite of xe^{-5}-3e^{-5}, find the opposite of each term.
2-xe^{-5}+3e^{-5}=y
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-xe^{-5}+3e^{-5}=y-2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
-xe^{-5}=y-2-3e^{-5}
Subtract 3e^{-5} from both sides.
\left(-\frac{1}{e^{5}}\right)x=y-\frac{3}{e^{5}}-2
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-\frac{1}{e^{5}}\right)x}{-\frac{1}{e^{5}}}=\frac{y-\frac{3}{e^{5}}-2}{-\frac{1}{e^{5}}}
Divide both sides by -e^{-5}.
x=\frac{y-\frac{3}{e^{5}}-2}{-\frac{1}{e^{5}}}
Dividing by -e^{-5} undoes the multiplication by -e^{-5}.
x=3+2e^{5}-e^{5}y
Divide y-\frac{3}{e^{5}}-2 by -e^{-5}.
