Well in this problem you want to isolate the x
To do this, first you want to move the -2y over to the other side of the equation.
You can do this by adding 2y to both sides because it will cancel out the -2y on the left side of the problem
now your problem reads 3x=2y+6
so now all you have to do is divide the entire problem by 3 so you can cancel out the 3 being multiplied to the x
your answer is x=2/3y+2 or choice A
