Question

Which equations are equivalent to y = two-thirds x minus 4 when written in slope-intercept form? Check all that apply.

3 x minus 2 y = 4
2 x minus 3 y = 12
Negative 4 (2 x minus 3 y) = negative 4 (12)
2 (x + 6) = 3 y
2 x minus 3 y = 4

Answer 1

b

Explanation:

Answer 2

2 x minus 3 y = 12

Negative 4 (2 x minus 3 y) = negative 4 (12)

Explanation:

y = two-thirds x minus 4

y = (⅔)x - 4

Multiply the entire equation by 3

3y = 2x - 12

2x - 3y = 12

Multiply both sides by -4

-4(2x - 3y) = -4(12)
