To manipulate the equation y=7x−12 so that it is written in terms of x, we need to isolate the x variable on one side of the equation.
Adding 12 to both sides of the equation gives:
y + 12 = 7x
Dividing both sides of the equation by 7 gives:
x = (y + 12)/7
Therefore, the equation that is equivalent to y = 7x−12, written in terms of x, is x = (y + 12)/7.
The correct answer is C. x=(y+12)/7.
