Answer Details
The given binary operation ⊕ on real numbers is defined as x⊕y = xy + x + y for any two real numbers x and y. Substituting the values x = -3/4 and y = 6 in the given expression, we get: (-3/4)⊕6 = (-3/4)×(6) + (-3/4) + (6) = (-9/2) + (21/4) = (-18/4) + (21/4) = 3/4 Therefore, the value of (-3/4)⊕6 is 3/4. Hence, option (A) is the correct answer.
