Question

Which eqation is equivalent to 3x + 4y = 15

A) y=15-3x
-------
4

B) y=3x-15
------
4

C) y=15-3x

D) y=3x-15

Answer 1

Answer:

$y=\frac{15-3x}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given an equation in x and y and we are required to solve it for y

we have

$3x+4y=15$

subtracting 3x from each sides we get

$3x-3x+4y=15-3x$

$4y=15-3x$

now we divide both sides by 4 we get

$\frac{4y{4}=\frac{15-3x}{4}$

$y=\frac{15-3x}{4}$

Hence A) is our right answer.
