Answer 1

tech sicx sl quizzes are limited to one answer . these were designed to have only one answer (static).

In this you are also right. But in this case you have to use x which is 24 .

Answer 2

put x itself which here equal to 24 u shouldn't put the value of variable x which equal to 24
y = x -12

Answer 3

x = 24
y = x -12 = 24 - 12 = 12

Answer 4
