Let "x" be a substitute for "a number"
1/3(x)=x-12 Multiply by 3
x=3x-36 Get n onto the same side of the equation
2x=36 Divide by 2
x=18
That's your answer.
Answer:
B
If you just use you finger to keep track of one point and follow each set of instructions you will find that B is correct.
I realize that in a previous comment I had said im bad at geometry but I immediately assumed this had to do with ASA and such.
The GCF of the three terms (9a, -18b and 21c) is 3
Rewrite each of the terms so 3 is a factor
9a = 3*3a
-18b = -3*6b
21c = 3*7c
So we can say...
9a - 18b + 21c = 3*3a - 3*6b + 3*7c
9a - 18b + 21c = 3(3a - 6b + 7c)
Answer: 3(3a - 6b + 7c)
If you distribute outer 3 to each of the inner terms and multiply, you'll get the original expression again.
