7. Solve this equation for y: 7y=12x

To solve the equation \( 7y = 12x \) for \( y \), follow these steps:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by \( 7 \):

\[
y = \frac{12x}{7}
\]

This can also be written as:

\[
y = \frac{12}{7} x
\]

So, the correct response is:

**y is equal to \(\frac{12}{7}\) x.**

(Note: This option isn't directly listed but it is equivalent to the first option, \( y = \frac{12}{7} x \), which can sometimes be incorrectly formatted in a response.)
