Question

Katarina wrote the standard form of a linear equation as 4x – 4 x minus StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction y equals 8.Y = 8. Sofiya told her that the equation was not yet in standard form and gave her the right advice for how to fix it. What advice did Sofiya give to Katarina? Multiply both sides of the equation by 3. The standard form of the equation is 12x – 2y = 24. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 and then divide both sides by 2. The standard form of the equation is 6x – y = 12. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3. The standard form of the equation is 12x – 2y = 8. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 and then divide both sides by 2. The standard form of the equation is 6x – y = 4.

Answer 2

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 and then divide both sides by 2. The standard form of the equation is 6x – y = 12.

Explanation:

Katarina's equation

4x - 2/3y = 8

In order to convert Katrina's linear equation into standard form,

She should find the least common denominator

4x - 2/3y = 8

{4x(3) - 2y(1)} / 3 = 8

(12x - 2y) / 3 = 8

Multiply both sides by 3

(12x - 2y) / 3 × 3 = 8 × 3

12x - 2y = 24

Divide both sides by 2

(12x - 2y) / 2 = 24 / 2

6x - y = 12

The advice sofiya gave Katrina is to Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 and then divide both sides by 2. The standard form of the equation is 6x – y = 12.
