X = 7y -5 / 3y - 2

Y = 2x-5 / 3x-7
3xy -7y = 2 x - 5
X (3y-7) = x (3)

Answer:


x = (7y - 5)/(3x - 2)

Explanation:

Please see attached picture for full solution.

Making x the subject of formula means that x is on the left hand side and all the other terms are on the right hand side of the equal sign.

In case your question is y= [(2x-5)/3x] -7, I have also attached the working in the second picture.

Y=2x-5/3x-7, make X subject-example-2
