Help with this algebra problem? 12y+6=6y+12?
Anika [276]
First, combine like terms.
12y+6=6y+12 turns into
12y-6y=12-6, which is
6y=6. Now divide both sides by 6.
y=1

now do a quick check (cause that's always a good idea).
12(1)+6=6(1)+12
12+6=6+12
18=18  ; )

What is the solution of √1-3x = x+3 ?<br><br><br>​
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

{-1, -8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Please enclose "1 - 3x" inside parentheses so the reader will know that you want the square root of all of "1 - 3x".

Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get:

1 - 3x = x^2 + 6x + 9, or  x^2 + 6x + 8 + 3x, or

x^2 + 9x + 8 = 0.  Factoring, we get:  (x + 8)(x + 1) = 0, so that the solutions are {-1, -8}.
