6a+12=2(3a-8) Use Distributive Property 6a+12=6a-16 -12 -12 6a=-28 Now divide 6 on both sides The two sixes cancel. After that, divide six and twenty eight. Your answer will be negative.

6a + 12 = 2(3a - 8)

First, expand. / Your problem should look like: 6a + 12 = 6a - 16.
Second, cancel 6a on both sides. / Your problem should look like: 12 = -16.
Third, since 12 = -16 is false, there is no solution.

The equation is invalid, therefore there is no solution to it.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Kate's electric bill will be $9 for this month for bulb use only.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Electricity bill lass month from bulb use = $12

Using new bulbs percent decrease in electricity = 25%

We need to find this month electric bill for bulb use.

Solution:

First we will find the reduction in bill after using new bulbs.

reduction in bill after using new bulbs can be calculated by percent decrease in electricity using new bulb multiplied by last month Electricity bill from bulb use only.

framing in equation form we get;

reduction in bill after using new bulbs = $\frac{25}{100}\times 12 =\$3$

Now we will find this month electric bill for bulb use only.

this month electric bill for bulb use only can be calculated by subtracting reduction in bill after using new bulbs from last month electric bill for bulb use only.

framing in equation form we get;

this month electric bill for bulb use only = $\$12-\$3=\$9$

Hence Kate's electric bill will be $9 for this month for bulb use only.
