2x + 4 = 12
We're simply just trying to isolate x.
So, we must get x onto it's own side of the equal sign :)
Our first step is to subtract 4 from both sides.
2x + 4 - 4 = 12 - 4
Simplify.
2x = 8
Then, we divide both sides by 2.
2x ÷ 2 = 8 ÷ 2
Simplify.
x = 4

To check your work, simply plug in the value of x into x in the original equation.
In this problem, x = 4, so plug in 4 for x.
2x + 4 = 12
2(4) + 4 = 12
Simplify.
8 + 4 = 12
12 = 12
Therefore, x = 4

For these kinds of expressions use FOIL (first, outside, inside, last).
-2x • 9x = -18x^2
-2x • -3y = 6xy
8y • 9x = 72 xy
8y • -3y = -24y^2
Now combine them all:
-18x^2 + 78xy - 24y^2
3.73 rounded to the nearest whole number would be 4
F = 
express the equation with F on the left side
3F - 24 = s ( add 24 to both sides )
3F = s + 24 ( divide both sides by 3 )
F =
