Solve the following formula for y: -2x+8y=12. I have the answer, y=-1/4x+3/2. But what's confusing me is it's saying Choose ALL equivalent variations of your answer.

Question

anonymous · Answer

Do you agree that the equation (y=-1/4x+3/2) describes a line? equivalent variations would just mean all equations which describe the same line

for example 8y = 2x + 12 describes that line

or

80y = 20x + 120

etc
