Simplifying

2x + -3y = 19

Solving

2x + -3y = 19

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.

2x + -3y + 3y = 19 + 3y

Combine like terms: -3y + 3y = 0

2x + 0 = 19 + 3y

2x = 19 + 3y

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 9.5 + 1.5y

Simplifying

x = 9.5 + 1.5y
