To find the value of \( y \) that makes the equation true for all values of \( x \), we need to combine like terms and then set coefficients equal. 13. For the equation \( 3x + 6x = yx \), combine the \( x \) terms on the left side: \[ 9x = yx \] Now, for this equation to hold for all values of \( x \), the coefficients must be equal. Thus, we have \( y = 9 \). 14. For the equation \( x + 5 + 11x = \), first combine the like terms: \[ 12x + 5 = ? \] This means, without further information, the left side simplifies to \( 12x + 5 \), and there is nothing to set equal, so there seems to be a slight missing part to the equation to solve for \( y \). So, if we assume you're asking for the constant term that makes it equal to a given target, it could simply be expressed as \( 12x + 5 = c \) for some constant \( c \).
