The answer would be "<span>3(4a + 2) = 12a + 6". With the distributive property, the number outside of the parenthesis is multiplied to each component inside the parenthesis individually. Ex: 3x4a=12a, 3x2=6.</span>
Sum means add
difference means subttract
x+y=1
x-y=11
add the 2 equations together
2x+0y=12
divide 2
x=6
subitute
6+y=1
subtract 6
y=-5
x=6
y=-5
