Answer:

Equation 1 - 12 = 12

Equation 2 - 12 = 12

Explanation:

Equation 1

  • 3 / 4 ( x - 12 ) = 12
  • 3 ( x - 12 ) = 12 * 4
  • 3 x - 36 = 48
  • 3 x = 48 + 36
  • x = 84 / 3
  • x = 28
  • Put the value of x = 28
  • 3 / 4 ( 28 - 12 ) = 12
  • 3 / 4 * 16 = 12
  • 12 = 12

Equation 2

  • 3 / 4 y - 12 = 12
  • 3 / 4 y = 12 + 12
  • 3 y = 24 * 4
  • 3 y = 96
  • y = 96 / 3
  • y = 32
  • Put the value of y
  • 3 / 4 * 32 - 12 = 12
  • 96 / 4 - 12 = 12
  • 24 - 12 = 12
  • 12 = 12

Hence it is proofed that the value of x is : The value of y is.
