Answer 7

first of all expand it ...as i mentioned before
a(x - y) = ax - ay

Answer 8

your forgetting about the 4 on the outside of the parenthesis Shelby

Answer 9

4/(12-4)
4/8
y=2?

Answer 10

4(y - 4) = 8
4y - 16 = 8
proceed .....

Answer 11

Example :
3(x + 2).....this is the same as saying 3 * x + 3 * 2 = 3x + 6
your basically multiplying the number on the outside of the parenthesis, with everything on the inside

Answer 12

now that you have gotten rid of the parenthesis...
4y - 16 = 8......try adding 16 to both sides

Answer 13

8+16=24
4 + 16=20?
