Question

Solve the following equation: $\frac{3y+4}{2-6y}=\frac{-2}{5}$

• A. $2$
• B. $-4$
• C. $4$
• D. $-8$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $-8$

Given, $\frac{3y+4}{2-6y}=\frac{-2}{5}$

On cross multiplying, we get

$5(3y+4)=-2(2-6y)$
$\Rightarrow 15y+20=-4+12y$
$\Rightarrow 3y=-24$
$\Rightarrow y=-8$
