Answer:

When y equals 4, x equals 27 but none of the answers given is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x in the equation 3x - 4y = 65, this way:

y = 4

3x - 4y = 65

3x - 4 (4) = 65

3x - 16 = 65

3x = 65 + 16

3x = 81

x = 81/3

x = 27

When y equals 4, x equals 27 but none of the answers given is correct.
