5x-3y=11
So first you need to switch -3y with 11 first because the the formula is y=mx+c
So, 5x -11= 3y
Now make y as the subject: 3y= 5x-11
Now divide both of the numbers by 3 to make it y=mx+c
So, y=3/5x-11
y=1.67x-3.67

Now try the another one by yourself by using my steps and remember that when you are switching the side. suppose if 3=5x if I will switch the side for this it will move from positive to negative so it will be -5x=-3.
If you want to switch from negative to positive it will be 3=5x (this is just an example)

I hope you understood my explanation. Thank me later.
