Thank you ☺️
<span>6(x + 2) - x = 4(x + 4) + 7
Use distributive property
6x+12-x=4x+16+7
Subtract x from 6x
5x+12=4x+16+7
Add 7 to 16
5x+12=4x+23
Subtract 4x from both sides
x+12=23
Subtract 12 from both sides
Final Answer: x=11</span>
I don't understand what you mean by 'mentally' but anyways, here is how to solve it.
(z−12)(z+12)
=(z+−12)(z+12)
=(z)(z)+(z)(12)+(−12)(z)+(−12)(12)
=z^2+12z−12z−144
=z^2−144
