6x+5y=18
6*3+5*0=18
6*-2+5*6=18

You cannot obtain unique values for x and y from a single equation.
To express y in terms of x:
Subtract 6x from each side:
5y = 18 - 6x
Divide by 5:
y = (18 - 6x) / 5.
Alternatively, to express x in terms of y:
Subtract 5y from each side:
6x = 18 - 5y
x = (18 - 5y) / 6.

There are many solutions.
First, put the equation into y=mx+b form:
5y=-6x+18
y=-6/5x+18/5
Graph this equation and every point on the graph shows a solution to the equation.

y = mx + c
y = gradient(i.e. slope)x + y intercept
6x + 5y = 18
5y = -6x + 18
y = (-6/5)x + (18/5)
its a linear equation, right?
otherwise, there are many possibilities

There is in fact an infinite number of solutions to this equation, since a line is infinitely long. You need to ask a definitive question here. Otherwise, no one will be able to definitely help you with your problem. It will only be guesswork based entirely on speculation.

X equals 1/2.
y equals 3.
Is that what you are looking for?
