If (2X-Y)=4, then (6X-3y) = ?

  1. 15

  2. 12

  3. 18

  4. 10


Correct Option: B

AI Explanation

To solve this question, we can use the given equation to find the value of (X-Y), and then substitute it into the second equation to find the value of (6X-3Y).

Given: (2X - Y) = 4

To find the value of (X-Y), we can rearrange the equation as follows: 2X - Y = 4 2X = Y + 4 X = (Y + 4)/2

Now, substitute this value of X into the second equation: (6X - 3Y) = (6*((Y + 4)/2) - 3Y) (6X - 3Y) = (3Y + 12 - 3Y) (6X - 3Y) = 12

Therefore, the value of (6X - 3Y) is 12.

Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) 15 - This option is incorrect because the value of (6X - 3Y) is 12, not 15. Option B) 12 - This option is correct because the value of (6X - 3Y) is indeed 12. Option C) 18 - This option is incorrect because the value of (6X - 3Y) is 12, not 18. Option D) 10 - This option is incorrect because the value of (6X - 3Y) is 12, not 10.

The correct answer is B) 12. This option is correct because the value of (6X - 3Y) is indeed 12.
