Question

If 3x−y=12, what is the value of 8x/2y ? A) 212 B) 44 C) 82 D) The value cannot be determined from the information given.

Answer 1

D) The value cannot be determined from the information given

Explanation:

If 3x−y=12, what is the value of 8x/2y ?

We can progress till:

• 3x-y=12
• y= 3x-12
• 8x/2y= 4x/y= 4x/(3x-12),

we need the value of x to determine the result.

So the answer is the last choice
