Given

3y = 2x + 6 ......... Equation A

To Find = The value of x

Statement 1

6y = 4x + 12

2*(3y) = 2*(4x +12)

3y = 2x + 6

Since the above equation is the same as the Equation A, it has got infinitely many solutions (Lines for both the equation are overlapping)

Since we have not got one unique value of x, Statement 1 is not sufficient alone.

Statement 2

2y = 3x -3

Let's multiply the equation by 3

6y = 9x - 9 ......... Equation B

Let's multiply the given equation by 2

6y = 4x + 12 ......... Equation C

Let's subtract Equation C from Equation B

( 6y - 6y ) = ( 9x - 9 ) - ( 4x + 12 )

0 = 5x + 3

x = -3/5

Since we have got one unique value of x, Statement 2 is independently sufficient.

Hence, the correct answer is B
