Question

Which equation is equivalent to y=23x−6?

A. 2x + 3y = −6
B. 3x − 2y = 6
C. 3x − 2y = 12
D. 2x − 3y = 18

Answer 1

D. I think you meant to say 2/3 x so the only correct answer is d

Answer 2

D. 2x -3y = 18

Explanation:

Multiply by 3, then rearrange.

... y = 2/3x -6

... 3y = 2x -18 . . . . . multiply by 3

... 0 = 2x -3y -18 . . . subtract 3y

... 18 = 2x -3y . . . . . add 18

... 2x - 3y - 18 . . . . . swap sides to match the form of the answers
