-⅔ (6x + 9) = 18
Apply distributive property. Multipy -⅔ to 6x and 9.
-4x - 6 = 18
Add 6 to both sides so -4x can be alone.
-4x - 6 + 6 = 18 + 6
-4x = 24
To get x alone, divide both sides by -4.
-4/-4x = 24/-4
x = -6
x = -6 is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if you need more help or if I got something wrong.
P divided by 25 that depends on how many pages there are on her scrapbook
The answer is: 5,614 square inches.
The explanation is shown below:
1. The gift on the bottom is a rectangular prism. To calculate its surface area, you must apply the following formula:
![SA=2[(l)(w)+(l)(h)+(h)(w)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=SA%3D2%5B%28l%29%28w%29%2B%28l%29%28h%29%2B%28h%29%28w%29%5D)
Where 
is the length (20 inches), 
is the width (42 inches) and 
is the heigth (16 inches).
2. Substitute values:
![SA1=2[(20in)(42in)+(20in)(16in)+(16in)(42in)]=3,664in^{2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=SA1%3D2%5B%2820in%29%2842in%29%2B%2820in%29%2816in%29%2B%2816in%29%2842in%29%5D%3D3%2C664in%5E%7B2)
3. The surface area of the other gifts can be calculated with the formula for calculate the surface area of a cube:
Where 
is the side.
4. The surface area of the bigger cube is:
5. The surface area of the smaller cube is:
6. The total surface area (the combined surface area of the three gifts) is:
The slope intercept form is y = -x - 4
To find the slope intercept form given a couple of points, start by finding the slope using the slope equation.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-5 - 0)/(1 - -4)
m = -5/5
m = -1
Now we look for the intercept using slope intercept form, our slope and a point.
y = mx + b
0 = -4(-1) + b
0 = 4 + b
-4 = b
Now we can use those two things top model the equation.
y = -x - 4
