Y = 12x - 5x - 2
first simplify the equation by subtracting like terms (in this case):
12x - 5x = 7x
y = 7x - 2
Since you are finding the x, you must isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.(Note: because there is a equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other)
y = 7x - 2
y (+2) = 7x - 2 (+2)
y + 2 = 7x
(y + 2)/7 = 7x/7
x = (y + 2)/7
x = (y + 2)/7 is your answer

If the square has sides of 6 the circle has a radius of 3 so it's area is 9pi
Which expression is equivalent to the given expression?
15(12-x)
A.

You pass the x in one side and numbers to the other side
8x-5x=58-4
add and subtract
3x=54
divide by 3
x=18
We can convert that into a fraction of 100 for the percentage.
4/20= 20/100
(multiply both by 5)
So, the basketball player makes 20% of the throws.
I hope this helps!
