Well, we know if we multiple 4 (x) by 3 we get 12 (y)

OpenStudy (mrcoolguy):

yes

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Sorry for the typos im eating icecream ಠᴥಠ lets say our x is 5. If you multiply 5 by 3 you will get 15, which is what our new y is. I hope you understand where I am getting at. I am explaining this awfully
