Question

Can someone help me? Find out how they got this answer

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 3x-12y }{ 3 }\]

Answer 2

when x=-2 and y=4 the answer is -18 but i keep getting -14

Answer 3

\[\large \frac{3x - 12y}{3}\]

Plugging in x = -2 and y =4

\[\large \frac{3(-2) - 12(4)}{3}\]

3 times -2 is -6 ...12 times 4 is 48 so

\[\large \frac{-6 - 48}{3}\]

If you're already at -6 on a number line and you go 48 more negative you are at 54 so

\[\large \frac{-54}{3} = -18\]
