Your answer would be
B. the estimated average change in y per unit change in x

Solution:
Given equation is
.
To solve the equation by step by step.
Step 1: Given

Step 2: Combine like terms together.
Plus symbol changed to minus when the term goes from right to left (or) left to right of the equal sign.

Step 3: Subtract the fractions in the left side.

⇒ 
Step 4: Divide both side of the equation by 3, we get


Hence, the answer is
.
-2x + 6 + 6x = 6 (2x - 3) <em>this is the equation</em>
-2x + 6 + 6x = 12x - 18 <em>distributive property has been applied</em>
4x + 6 = 12x - 18 <em>like terms have been added</em>
6 = 8x -18 <em>4x has been</em><em> </em><em>subtracted from both sides</em>
24 = 8x <em>-18 has been added to both sides</em>
3 = x <em>8 has been divided from both sides</em>
