Answer 2

one approach
first multiply everything by the LCM 2 get rid of fractions
write y =
substitute the given value of 2 in the equation and check if the answer you compute is the option
if the value is the same then its a solution

Answer 3

12 x -28 = y
when x = -9 is y = 3?
when x = 2 is y = -4?

Answer 4

wait i am confused

Answer 5

any questions on checking if these are solutions?

Answer 6

wait the firs is and the second is not

Answer 7

first*

Answer 8
