Question

1)Explain how these examples could be found in the real world 
X-6
2(x divided by 2)
4(x-8)

2)Explain how the algebraic properties are applied in the steps to solving equations and use them to solve 1/2x + 4 = 12

midhun.madhu1987 · Answer

x - 6
6 subtracted from the value x

2(x divided by 2)
2 multiplied with the quotient of x divided by 2

4(x-8)
4 multiplied with the difference of 8 from x

midhun.madhu1987 · Answer

1/2x + 4 = 12

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation..what do you get?

anonymous · Answer

1/2x=8

midhun.madhu1987 · Answer

yes... perfect...

Step 2: Multiply both sides of the equation by 2..

what you get?
