Solve: 3x+4y>123x + 4y > 12 for yy.

A

y>34x+3y > -\frac{3}{4}x + 3

B

y<34x+3y < -\frac{3}{4}x + 3

C

y>34x3y > -\frac{3}{4}x - 3

D

y>34x+3y > \frac{3}{4}x + 3

Correct Answer: A

Choice A is the correct answer. Isolate yy.

  1. Subtract 3x: 4y>3x+124y > -3x + 12
  2. Divide by 4: y>34x+3y > -\frac{3}{4}x + 3

?�� Strategic Tip: Dividing by positive 4 keeps the sign direction.

Choice B is incorrect because it reverses the sign. Choice C is incorrect because it has wrong intercept sign. Choice D is incorrect because it has wrong slope sign.
