Answer:

  • 120y + 720x = 600 (First option)
  • y = 5 - 6x (2nd option)
  • 2y + 12x = 10 (third option)
  • x = 5/6 - y/6 (fifth option)

Explanation:

Correct answers only explained
------------------------------------------------------------------
We have the original equation as
72x + 12y = 60
If we multiply by 10 we get

720x + 120y = 600
First option

---------------------------------------------------------------

We can rewrite the original equation 72x + 12y = 60 as follows
Carry 72x to the right:
12y = 60 - 72x

Divide by 12
y = 5 - 6x
Second option

---------------------------------------------------------------

Rewrite 72x + 12y = 60 as

12y + 72x = 60 (same thing)

Divide by 6:
2y + 12x = 10

Third option

---------------------------------------------------------------

Rewrite 72x + 12y = 60 as

72x = 60 - 12y

Divide by 72

x = 60/72 -12y/72

Reduce to lowest fraction
x = 5/6 - y/6
Fifth option
------------------------------------------------
