Answer:
it's not
Step-by-step explanation:
if you simplify by making the denominators the same (multiplying 9/12 by 6/6 and 4/6 by 12/12), you'll arrive at 54/72 and 48/78. 54 isn't equal to 48
When you isolate the variable to one side of the equation, you have to use the given operation to simplify the number on the other side of the equal sign.
Ex: 4x + 8 = 40
This is a simple one-step equation, but to solve this, first, you need to subtract 8 from 40.
4x = 40
- 8
4x = 32
Then, you divide 4x by 32.
4x = 32
4x 4
x = 8
However, with multi-step equations you have to do these three important steps.
1.) Distribute - the number that's on the outside of the parentheses, gets multiplied to all the numbers except for the one on the right side of the equal sign
2.) Combine Like Terms - numbers with coefficients like 3x, 6y, or 7a, that have another one like it, you need to add them together and keep the variable.
3.) Simplify - it's almost like combining like terms, except if you have more than one number with coefficient, then again, add all the numbers with the same variable together.
And by the way, coefficient basically is a "fancy" way to say "number with a variable attached".
I hope I helped :)
In most cases, income tax brackets are progressive, meaning that the greater the income, the higher the rate of taxation. Federal rates for the 2013 tax year range from 10 to 39.6 percent. State and city rates are generally much lower.
Okay. So first you subtract 2x from each side. That will give you 4y= -2x+18 (you want to get y by itself). Then you divide both sides by 4. It should equal> y= 1/2x +9/2
Answer:
stop
Step-by-step explanation:
(of an event, action, or process) come to an end; cease to happen.
