Write the expression in standard form by collecting like terms:

12( 1 - 3a) +8 (a + b)

(a.) 12a + 8b + 28

(b.) -28a + 8b + 12

(c.) 28a - 8b - 12

(d.) 16a + 8b

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3
