Solve for y in the equation x = 12y - 3

y = 15/12
y = 1/12
y = 3/12
y = 9/12

The correct answer is: y = 15/12

To find the value of y in this equation, we need to isolate the variable by itself on one side of the equals sign. To do this, we can first add 3 to both sides of the equation, giving us x + 3 = 12y. Then, we can divide both sides by 12 to get y by itself, giving us (x + 3)/12 = y. Therefore, the correct answer is A because we have solved for y and found that it is equal to (x + 3)/12. The other options are incorrect because they either do not include the variable x or they do not divide by the coefficient of y, which in this case is 12.
