My math question is

1. 2x6squared - 26/2

72-13 = 59

2. 1/3(x-9) = 2x+7 is
-11

Am I correct. Thanks

Online "^" is used to indicate an exponent, e.g., x^2 = x squared.

Online, “*” is used to indicate multiplication to avoid confusion with “x” as an unknown.

1. YES.

2*6^2 - 26/2 = 59

2. NO.

1/3(x-9) = 2x - 7

Multiply both sides by 3.

x - 9 = 6x -21

Transpose similar values.

-9 + 21 = 6x - x

12 = 5x
