Really in need of some help maths wise anyone good with ALGEBRA
IN ALGEBRA ,IF X =6 WHAT IS THE VALUE OF THE SUM : X+Y =10?
IN ALGEBRA IF X= 12WHAT IS THE VALUE OF THE SUM :XxY=84
IN ALGEBRA IF X=7 WHAT IS THE VALUE OF THE SUM X-Y=6
IN ALGEBRA IF X 60 WHAT IS THE VALUE OF THE SUM X DIVIDED BY Y=12

Really would appreciate the help.

MANY MANY THANKS

Actually the questions don't make sense. To make sense it would have to ask what is the value of y not what is the value of the sum

[fiction-factory]

It's sums rather than algebra anyway.
Think of the first one as 6 + ⃝ = 10. Then fill in the missing number.

[mallyh]

it says what is the value of y in the sum .... not of the sum

[fiction-factory]

Thanks mally. I was just relying on what otis had typed.

If you look at them like this otis it makes them easier.

6 + ⃝ = 10
12 x ⃝ = 84
7 - ⃝ = 6
60 ÷ ⃝ =12

some child's homework !

Ha- it must be the Real People's Editor's child's homework then, murraymints, because mallyh has seen the question in there too.

[murraymints]

really ?? gawd....

[mallyh]

if x = 6 what is the value of y in the sum x+ y = 10 ........ 4
if x = 2 what is value of y in the sum Xxy= 22................11
if x = 7 what is the value of y in the sum x- y.................1
if x = 60 what is the value of y in the sum x divided by y = 12.........5
I think lol

[fiction-factory]

Your maths is right of course mallyh although your Q2 differs from otis1's.

[mallyh]

I missed one if x = 12 what is the value of y in the sum X x y = 84 ......7
