First solution :

Say, x = 0

→ 2x + 3y = 4

→ 2(0) + 3y = 4

→ 0 + 3y = 4

→ 3y = 4

y = 4/3

  • x = 0, y = 4/3

Second solution :

Say, x = 1

→ 2x + 3y = 4

→ 2(1) + 3y = 4

→ 2 + 3y = 4

→ 3y = 4 - 2

→ 3y = 2

y = 2/3

  • x = 1, y = 2/3

Third solution :

Say, x = 2

→ 2x + 3y = 4

→ 2(2) + 3y = 4

→ 4 + 3y = 4

→ 3y = 4 - 4

→ 3y = 0

→ y = 0 ÷ 3

y = 0

  • x = 2, y = 0
