X=24+xy
have to get y alone so subtract 24 from both sides
x-24=xy
divide both sides by x to get y alone
(x-24)/x=y
Now we need to plug in the -12
(-12-24)/-12=y
We need to simplify inside the parentheses before we divide
-36/-12=y
Now simplify the left to get your answer
3=y

Write an expression involving integers for each statement a) moving 4 steps left, then moving 9 steps right b) on 3 separate occ

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

(a) $-4+9$

(b) $-2 \times 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

Moving 4 steps left, then moving 9 steps right

When you move left, we indicate with a negative sign while a move right is indicated with a positive sign.

Moving 4 steps left = -4

Moving 9 steps right = +9

Therefore, an expression for the statement is: $-4+9$

<u>Part B</u>

When you lose or owe in word problems, it is usually indicated using a negative sign.

Therefore, the statement Shari lost 2 pencils can be represented with the integer: -2

Since Shari lost 2 pencils on 3 occasions, we simply have:

$-2 \times 3$
