Question
6x9y>12
Which of the following inequalities is equivalent to the inequality above?
Options:
A .  x−y>2
B .  2x−3y>4
C .  3x−2y>4
D .  3y−2x>2
Answer: Option B
:
B
We know that an inequality remains unchanged if the entire inequality is multiplied by a positive constant. If an inequality is multiplied by a positive constant, the ratios of the coefficients of x, coefficients of y and the constant terms will be equal.
It can be observed that in option B,
Ratio of coefficients of x=62=3
Ratio of coefficients of y=93=3
Ratio of constant terms =124=3
Hence, B is the correct choice.
