Find an equivalent equation in polar coordinates.
-$$2 x + 3 y = 6$$
A) $2 \sin \theta + 3 \cos \theta = 6 r$
B) $r ( 2 \cos \theta + 3 \sin \theta ) = 6$
C) $2 \cos \theta + 3 \sin \theta = 6 r$
D) $r ( 2 \sin \theta + 3 \cos \theta ) = 6$

To convert the Cartesian equation $2x + 3y = 6$ to polar coordinates, use the relationships $x = r\cos\theta$ and $y = r\sin\theta$. Substituting these into the given equation yields $2r\cos\theta + 3r\sin\theta = 6$, which simplifies to $r(2\cos\theta + 3\sin\theta) = 6$, matching choice B.
