The equation can be simplified: x-y=7
So y=x-7. So only answer option 2 fits the equation (5,-2)

The answer would be (5, -2). This is because when you plug in the respective values in for x and y into the equation 3x - 3y = 21, you get 21, which is the desired answer.
3x - 3y = 21
3(5) - 3(-2) = 21
15 + 6 = 21
21 = 21
Hope this helped!

Three-fourths of the sum of six times a number and twelve distribute

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

6 times the number = 6*x = 6x

Sum of 6 times of a number and twelve = 6x + 12

Three-fourths of the sum of 6 times of a number and twelve = $\frac{3}{4}(6x +12)$

$\frac{3}{4} ( 6x + 12) = \frac{3}{4}*6x + \frac{3}{4}*12\\\\$

$= \frac{3}{2}*3x + 3*3\\\\=\frac{9}{2}x + 9$
