Look at this system of equations. How can the system be changed so that the two equations have equal x-coefficients?
3x + 2y = 12
6x + 3y = 21
A. Divide both sides of the top equation by 2
B. Multiply both sides of the top equation by 2
C. Divide both sides of the top equation by 3
D. Multiply both sides of the top equation by
The answer is B. Multiply both sides of the top equation by 2. This is because if you multiply 3x by 2, you get 6x, and 6x is in the other equation, which makes the x-values equal
