Please help me solve this linear equation:
=================================================
That's a 15000 on the right hand side… it doesn't display properly in preview due to the comma.

You can solve it for x in terms of y, or for y in terms of x, but because there are two unknowns, you can not solve it to get specific numerical values for x and y:
y in terms of x (subtract 45x from both sides, then divide both sides by 35 — EDIT: divide both sides by 5):

x in terms of y (subtract 35y from both sides, then divide both sides by 45 — EDIT: divide both sides by 5):
