A(b-c)
First substitute values
-8(12+4)=
Next, solve using ordering of PEMDAS
-8 (12+4)=
-8 (16)=12
twice the sum of a number and 3, means you need to add the number to 3 first, then multiply by 2.
The correct expression would be 2(n+3)
It won't. Both are increasing by 1.5 every year. If you graph that, the lines will be parallel. Parallel lines have no intercept.
1/12
1/4 divided by 3 equals 1/12
Hope this helped! :)
