Let the number of comic books be X
if we add 14 to X = 24
so we will find the value of X to get half initial number of comic books William had.
14+X=24
X=24-14
X=10
so the total innitial number of comic books William had is 10+10=20 books.

X/4 - y/3 =1 X and Y axis standard form

Semenov [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x/4 - y/3 = 1..multiply everything by the LCD....which is 12

3x - 4y = 12 <== standard form

=====================================

if it makes it easier for u, x/4 is the same as (1/4)x and y/3 is the same as (1/3)y

so ur problem can be written as : (1/4)x - (1/3)y = 1....multiply by 12

12(1/4)x - 12(1/3)y = 12(1)

(12/4)x - (12/3)y = 12.....reduce

3x - 4y = 12
