Answer: x = -1.8 + 0.6y
Explanation:
Simplifying
3y + -5x = 9
Reorder the terms:
-5x + 3y = 9
Solving
-5x + 3y = 9
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3y' to each side of the equation.
-5x + 3y + -3y = 9 + -3y
Combine like terms: 3y + -3y = 0
-5x + 0 = 9 + -3y
-5x = 9 + -3y
Divide each side by '-5'.
x = -1.8 + 0.6y
Simplifying
x = -1.8 + 0.6y
