If the sum of two numbers is x

Then the equation is like this:

a+b = x

Then it says one of the number is 12. Change either a or b into 12

12 + b =x

If we want to find the other number, we need the make it into the subject

b = x - 12

Hope that help.

Y would be the other unknown number.

12 + Y = X

12-12+Y=X-12

Y=X-12

Answer:if you double all of the dimensions of a rectangular prism, you create a similar prism with a scale factor of 2. The surface area of the similar prism will increase as the square of the scale factor (22 = 4) and the volume will increase as the cube of the scale factor (23 = 8).
