Answer:

D. -2x+3y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. add -2x to both sides of the equation
  2. divide 3 on both sides of the equation
  3. the line is y=2/3x +4
  4. you could also move the variable to the right
  5. divide both sides by -2
  6. and get x=-6+3/2y

ANSWER

D. -2x+3y=12

EXPLANATION

The given line passes through:

(0,4) and (-6,0)

These are the x and y intercepts.

The equation is given by :

[tex] \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} = 1[/tex]

where a= -6 is the x-intercept and b=4 is the y-intercept.

We substitute the values to get,

[tex]\frac{x}{ - 6} + \frac{y}{4} = 1[/tex]

Multiply through by 12,

[tex]\frac{x}{ - 6} \times 12 + \frac{y}{4} \times 12 = 1 \times 12[/tex]

[tex] - 2x + 3y = 12[/tex]

The correct answer is D .
