y = 12x + 10
Assuming that your question is multiple choice, the variables might be different.
The reason that it's represented as 12x + 10 is because there is a flat fee of $10 when you sign up. From then on afterward, every month you pay $12.
In this equation, the variable 'y' represents the total cost, while 'x' represents the number of months this service was in use.

Hey there!
Let's break this expression into two parts:
6(3x-1) and -10x
To solve the first part, we need to use the distributive property which states:
a(b+c) = ab+ac
Applying that to this problem, we have:
6(3x) + 6(-1) =
18x - 6
Now, we can take that -10x and put it right back in:
18x - 6 - 10x
Combine like terms and subtract the 10x from the 18x to get:
8x - 6
Hope this helps!
5/8=0.625
7/12=0.583......
5/8 is bigger as ive put both into a decimal as it is easier to tell
