$\"+3x+%2B5y+=+7+\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 3x from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3x-3x+%2B5y+=+7+-3x+\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5y+=+-3x+%2B7+\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 5.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5y%2F5+=+%28-3x+%2B7%29+%2F5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+y+=+%28-3x%29%2F5+%2B7%2F5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+y+=+-%283%2F5%29x+%2B7%2F5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Done. \n" ); document.write( "
