1st. Try to make x by itself. Divide 12 on each side.
After it will look like this
x=12
You are factoring one or more linear expressions (but are not factoring variables).
2.4n+9.6 can be divided by 2.4 and then the result mult. by 2.4:
2.4n+9.6 = 2.4 [ n + 4 ]
Also: -6z+12= 6 [ -z + 2 ] Here I have simplified linear functions but factoring out common constant coefficients (not variables).
Pi is defined as the ratio of the circumference of any circle to its diameter. As all circles are similar and therefore proportional in dimensions, pi is therefore always the same for all circles and is constant
