Answer:

2x-3y

Step-by-step explanation:

To expand this expression, use the distributive property.

-\frac{1}{4}(-8x+12y)

To distribute, multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number outside the parentheses.

(-\frac{1}{4}*-8x)+(-\frac{1}{4} *12y)

Multiply -1/4 and -8x first.

((-\frac{1}{4}*-8)x)+(-\frac{1}{4} *12y)

2x+(-\frac{1}{4} *12y)

Next, multiply -1/4 and 12y.

2x+ ((-\frac{1}{4} *12)y)

2x+ -3y

A +- becomes a -

2x-3y

Answer:

 

8x -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property. 16 outside wishes to go inside and multiply each term; you get 16x/2 which is 8x minus ¾ of 16 which is 12.

Write an equation of the line below.
katrin [286]
Hello!

The equation would be y= -2/6x + (-3). Since, the y-intercept is -3 and the slope/growth is -2/6 (it's decreasing).

To find the slope just make a growth triangle. We go down twice (then to the right 6 times).
