Question

x = 3 and y = -2 is a solution of the equation 4px – 3y = 12, then the value of p is​

Answer 1

★ p = 1/2 ★

Given equation , 4px - 3y = 12

By substituting the values of x & y

◉ 4 ( p ) ( 3 ) - 3 ( - 2 ) = 12

◉ 12p + 6 = 12

◉ 6 ( 2p + 1 ) = 12 or 12p = 12 - 6

◉ 2p + 1 = 12/6 or 12p = 6

◉ 2p = 2 - 1 or p = 6/12

◉ p = 1/2 or p = 1/2

Hence , p = 1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

Given Equation :-

4px - 3y = 12

Values given :-

x = 3

y = -2

Solving :-

4(p)(3) - 3(-2) = 12

12p - (-6) =12

12p = 12 - 6

12p = 6

p = 12/6

• p = 1/2
