Since the problem states "a number" and again "a number", I assume it;'s the same number. Let the number be x.

12x - 9x = 3x

The difference of twelve times a number and nine times a number is three times the number.

12x-9y

Difference means subtraction, so the difference between 12 <u>times a number</u> is known as 12x because we do not know what is being multiplied by 12. Same with 9 times a number. Since 12 and 9 have two numbers that we don't know the value of, we have to change one of them to a different variable because we do not know if it is the same number or not. So it would be 12x-9y, or any letters you choose.

15 - 1/2 x 2 equals 14, but i dont know the steps
zloy xaker [14]
Remember PEMDAS - parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract

because multiply come before subtract, your first step would be 1/2 x 2 = 1

next, you subtract -> 15 - 1 = 14

14 is your answer

Running at a constant​ rate, austin run 18 miles in a time of 180 minutes. How many minutes does it take austin to run ​ 6 miles
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

60 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

to find this, we will first determine how long it takes austin to run one mile.

18 miles / 180 minutes

1 mile / 10 minutes

it takes austin to run 10 minutes to run 1 mile

now, we will multiply the number of minutes it takes by 6 to find how long it takes austin to run 6 miles.

1 mile / 10 minutes

6 miles / 60 minutes

it takes austin 60 minutes to run 6 miles
