Copied from my answer to your other question:

I have changed your equation from 12x=48 mod 18 to 12x=18 mod 48 as it is impossible to have 48 mod 18 in modular arithmetic/it makes no sense.

Anyway, any modular equation a=b mod m can be rewritten as a-b=km where k is an integer. or in other words, m divides a-b without remainder. Applying this to the equation above we get (12x-18)/48=k. Now just stick it into a calculator and replace x with integers or since 12 is even, a number with + 0.5 until the equation gives out an integer, in this case x turns out to be 1.5, then 5.5, 9.5 etc.

What is the work for 4 parenthasis 3x plus 2 parenthasis minus18 equals 14?

4(3x + 2)-18=14...if this is your problem, the answer is as followsmultiply 4 by everything in parenthesis:12x+8-18=14combine like terms by subtracting 18 from 8:12x-10=14isolate the variable (12x) by adding 10 to each sides:12x=10+1412x=24Divide both sides by 12 to get x by itself:12x/12x=24/12X=2


What is the value of y 12x 5y equals 30 y equals 2x 6?

write it as 2 separate equations: 12x-5y=30 2x-6=30 Now the easiest thing to do is solve the second equation: 2x=36 x=36/2 x=18 Now just plug x=18 into the first equation: 12*18-5y=30 216-5y=30 -5y=-186 y=37.2
