Q. Which of the following is equivalent to 3x−4y=6 ?(A) y=−76x(B) y=−43x(C) y=34x+2(D) y=43x−23
Move 3x term: Isolate the variable y in the equation 3x−4y=6. To do this, we need to move the term 3x to the other side of the equation by subtracting 3x from both sides. 3x−4y−3x=6−3x This simplifies to: −4y=−3x+6
Divide by −4: Divide both sides of the equation by −4 to solve for y.−4y/−4=(−3x+6)/−4This simplifies to:y=(3/4)x−(6/4)
Simplify fraction: Simplify the fraction(46).46 can be reduced to 23. So the equation becomes: y=(43)x−(23)
Check options: Check the given options to see which one matches the simplified equation.The correct option should be y=43x−23.
