Given the following question:
First expression:

Second expression:
27÷3=9
9 is the original number.
9×2=18
the answer is 18.
if you wanted to check your work, 27:18 simplifies down to 3:2.
|2x + 12| = 18
First, break down the problem into 2 equations . / 2x + 12 = 18 and -(2x + 12) = 18
Second, solve the first equation. /

Subtract 12 from both sides. /

Subtract 18 - 16. /

Divide both sides by 2. /

Simplify. /
Third, solve the second equation. / -(2x + 12) = 18
Simplify your brackets. /

Add 12 to both sides. /

Add 18 + 12. /

Divide both sides by -2. /

Simplify. /

Simplify. /
Fourth, collect the solutions. /

Answer:
x = -15, 3
4a^2c^2(a^2-b^2+c^2)^2
First, solve the exponent around the quantity. Being that it's a power of a power, you would multiply all the exponents inside the parentheses by two. So, after that, it would be:
4a^2c^2(a^4-b^4+c^4)
Then, you would multiply what's outside the parentheses with every term within the parentheses:
(4a^6c^2)-(4a^2c^2b^4)+(4a^2c^6)
Now, you think you can take it from here, or do you need me to keep going?
To write 26.2 as a mixed number in the simplest form, do the following:
26.2 = 26 + 0.2
= 26 + 2/10
Note that

Therefore
