sure, $$3x+5y=1$$ for example. then choose one of the variables and solve for it. let's say you choose to solve for x you want to rewrite the equation so you are just left with x on one side of the equal sign, and everything else on the other $\Large x=\ \ \ \dots$

$3x+5y=1\\ \implies 3x= 1-5y \\ \large \implies x={1-5y \over3}$
