Write as a Function of x 5x-6y=5

$5 x - 6 y = 5$

Subtract $5 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$- 6 y = 5 - 5 x$

Divide each term in $- 6 y = 5 - 5 x$ by $- 6$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 6 y = 5 - 5 x$ by $- 6$ .

$\frac{- 6 y}{- 6} = \frac{5}{- 6} + \frac{- 5 x}{- 6}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 6$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 6 y}{- 6} = \frac{5}{- 6} + \frac{- 5 x}{- 6}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{5}{- 6} + \frac{- 5 x}{- 6}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{5}{6} + \frac{- 5 x}{- 6}$

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$y = - \frac{5}{6} + \frac{5 x}{6}$

To rewrite as a function of $x$ , write the equation so that $y$ is by itself on one side of the equal sign and an expression involving only $x$ is on the other side.

$f (x) = - \frac{5}{6} + \frac{5 x}{6}$
