Q.2 - What is the value of y in the equation 3(4y - 12) = 0 ? Show your work.

Sagot :

Hey there!

3(4y - 12) = 0

3(4y) + 3(-12) = 0

12y - 36 = 0

Add 36 to both sides

12y - 36 + 36 = 0 + 36

Cancel out: -36 + 36 because it give you 0

Keep: 0 + 36 because it help solve for the equation

New equation: 12y = 0 + 36

Simplify it

12y = 36

DIVIDE 12 to both sides

12y/12 = 36/12

Cancel out: 12/12 because that give you 1

Keep: 36/12 because it give you the y-value (also known as your overall result)

New equation: y = 36/12

Simplify it

y = 3


Therefore, your answer should be:

y = 3


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
