Question

Which of the following represents x = 1/3y written in general form?


1/3x - y = 0


3x - y = 0
x - 1/3y = 0

Answer 1

`x=(1)/(3)y\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |substract\ (1)/(3)y\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{x-(1)/(3)y=0}\\\\x-(1)/(3)y=0\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\\\\\boxed{3x-y=0}`

Answer 2

`x= (1)/(3)y` put all numbers on the left

`x- (1)/(3)y=0`
third equation is the answer

`x- (1)/(3)y=0` multiply by 3
3x-y=0
