Answer:
2(n-6)=12
(I went too far in my explanation; I'm not going to erase it because I think it is important to have an example on solving these)
Step-by-step explanation:
Twice the difference of a number and 6 is the same as 12.
Twice means 2 times
Difference means the result of subtracting something.
is the same as means equal to (=).
So we are given 2(n-6)=12.
You can start by dividing 2 on both sides are distributing 2 to terms in the ( ).
I will do it both ways and you can pick your favorite.
2(n-6)=12
Divide both sides by 2.
n-6 =6
Add 6 on both sides
n =12
OR!
2(n-6)=12
Distribute 2 to both terms in the ( )
2n-12=12
Add 12 on both sides
2n =24
Divide both sides by 2
n =12
3.5 feet converted to inches is 42 inches. 42"-14"=28"
28" divided by 2 sides is 28/2 = 14" on either side if the poster remaining
