58) If x is more than one-third the value of y, which of the following expresses the value of y in terms of x?

1. ^x+2/₃
2. y=^x-2/₃
3. y=3(x-2)
4. y=3(x-6)

Answer 3 is correct. Always try plugging in when presented with variables in questions and answers. Keep numbers simple. Choosing 12 for Answer 3, write b=2+1/3(12). Solving leaves you with b=2+4=6. Plug in 6 to each equation to see what works.
