Two equations are shown: Equation 1: 34 (x-12) = 12 Equation 2: 34y-12=12 Solve each equation. Then, enter a number in each box to make this statement true. The value of x is: The value of y is:

Okay expand the brackets so that 34x - 408 = 12, then add 408 to both sides

this gets 34x = 420

divide both sides by 34 hence x = 420/34 = 12.3529411 ... = 12.353

34y - 12 = 12, add 12 to both sides

34y = 24 divide both sides by 34

y = 24/34 = 0.705882 ... = 0.706
