$\setlength{\unitlength}{1.0 cm}}\begin{picture}(12,4)\thicklines\put(1,1){\line(1,0){6.5}}\put(1,1.1){\line(1,0){6.5}}\end{picture}$

2x - y = (3/4)x + 6.

or, 2x - (3/4)x = y + 6

or, (8x -3x)/4 = y + 6

or, 5x/4 = y + 6

or, 5x = 4(y + 6)

or, 5x = 4y + 24

or, x = (4y + 24)/5

• Therefore, x = 4(y + 6)/5.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y = (3/4)x + 6.

or, 2x - (3/4)x = y + 6

or, (8x -3x)/4 = y + 6

or, 5x/4 = y + 6

or, 5x = 4(y + 6)

or, 5x = 4y + 24

or, x = (4y + 24)/5

Therefore, x = 4(y + 6)/5.
