Answer:

X = 4 minus four-thirds y

Explanation:

Well to solve for x we single it out.

3x = 12 - 4y

Divide 3 by everything,

x = 4 - 4/3y

Thus,

X = 4 minus four-thirds y.

I do hope this helps :)

Answer:


x = 4 - (4)/(3)y

Explanation:

If we have the equation
3x = 12-4y, we can simplify this equation down.

Divide both sides by 3:


x = 4 - (4)/(3)y .

Hope this helped!
