Answer:

x = 8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

An internet cafe charges a fixed amount per minute to use the internet.

The cost of using the  internet in dollars is,

[tex]y=\dfrac{3}{4}x[/tex]

Where

x is the number of minutes spent on the internet

We need to find the value of x when y = $6.

So, put y = 6 in the above equation.

[tex]6=\dfrac{3}{4}x\\\\x=\dfrac{6\times 4}{3}\\\\x=8\ min[/tex]

So, 8 minutes must spent on internet.
