For 3x + 12 + x, do like terms:
4x + 12
For 4(3 + x), multiply
12 + 4x
They are both the same, just written in different ways. One is adding like terms and the other is multiplying with parentheses. Even though it may be switched around, it is still the same.
Hope this helps :)

multiply top eqatyion by -1 and add to 2nd
9x-2y=24
<u>-x+2y=8 +</u>
8x+0y=32
8x=32
divid both sides b y8
x=4
sub back
-x+2y=8
-4+2y=8
add 4 to both sides
2y=12
divide both sides by 2
y=6
(x,y)
(4,6)
