When you take this problem and simplify it you get 9p-3
The Answer is....
x=-3 and y=3
(-3,3)
Simple,
1/2 of 60
re-write it as 0.5 of 60 aka 0.5*60
which is 0.5*60=30
Do the same with 1/2 of 24.
0.5 of 24
0.5*24=12.
Thus, it's not the same because they are different numbers and different number give you different answers.
