Distribute the -1/2 to both x and 12
-1/2(x) = -1/2x
-1/2(12) = -6
12 - (-1/2x) - 6
Simplify: Note, two negatives = one positive
12 + 1/2x - 6
Simplify: combine common numbers together
12 - 6 + 1/2x
6 + 1/2x
1/2x + 6 is your equivalent expression
hope this helps
Completely factored it is (12x^2 + 4)(x-5)
Answer: 7n
Step-by-step explanation
a product is the multiplication answer. so a number- n- multiplied by 7 is 7n.
The answer would be B because the sum of the squares of the 2 shorter sides equal the square of the longer side, which is the pythagoream theorem of a^2+b^2=c^2.
