any reason why?

Answer 10

3/4x - 1/6y=x-2
9x-2y=12(x-2)
9x-2y=12x-24
-3x-2y=-24
24-3x=2y
y=(24-3x)/2

that's the same exact solution I came up with

Answer 26

3/4x-1/6y=x-2

3/4x - 1/6y = x - 2
Subtract 3/4x from both sides.
-1/6y = x - 2 - 3/4x
-1/6y = 1/4x - 2
Divide through by -1
1/6y = -1/4x + 2
Multiply through by 6.
y = -1/4x(6) + 2(6)
y = -6/4x + 12
y = -3/2x + 12

Hope this helps.
