So 3 times (3 times) the sum of (+) a number and 4 (x,4)  is equal to (=) five times the number (5x) decreased by 2 (-2)

the equation would be 3(x+4)=5x-2
so if we solve we get
3x+12=5x-2
12=2x-2
10=2x
5=x

Phantasy [73]
The first thing we must do for this case is to find the surface area of the rectangular prism.
 We have then:
 A = 2 * (l * h) + 2 * (h * w) + 2 * (w * l)
 Where,
 w: width
 l: long
 h: height
 Substituting values we have:
 A = 2 * (10 * 8) + 2 * (8 * 8) + 2 * (8 * 10)
 A = 448 in ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the least amount of wrapping paper needed to wrap the gift box answer is:
 
A = 448 in ^ 2
