12 - 2x = -2(y - x)

12 - 2x = -2y - (-2x)

12 - 2x = -2y + 2x

12 - 2x - 2x = -2y + 2x - 2x

12 - 4x = -2y

12 - 12 - 4x = -2y - 12

-4x = -2y - 12

-4x/4 = -2y/4 - 12/4

-x = -0.5y - 3

-x/-1 = -0.5y/-1 - 3/-1

x = 0.5y + 3

or

x = 3 + 0.5y

Solve the following equation by using the addition principle. Check the solution.
omeli [17]

Answer:

y = 11/20

Step-by-step explanation:

-4/5 + y = -1/4

Add 4/5 to each side

-4/5  +4/5 + y = -1/4+4/5

y = -1/4 + 4/5

Get a common denominator

y = -1/4 *5/5   + 4/5 *4/4

y = -5/20 + 16/20

y = 11/20

Check

-4/5 +11/20 = -1/4

Get a common denominator

-4/5*4/4 + 11/20 = -1/4*5/5

-16/20 +11/20 = -5/20

-5/20 = - 5/20
