1 answer:

3 0

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

saw5 [17]

Answer:

Given the statement:

9 less than the sum of x and 5

" $\text{less than}$ " means subtract

then;

the statement 9 less than the sum of x and 5 becomes;

⇒ $(x+5) - 9$

⇒ $x+5-9 = x-4$

Therefore, the expression for the given statement is $(x+5) - 9$
