Expand the brackets so you get
24a+48=18a-36

then you take the smaller value of a from both sides which in this case is 18a
so then you are left with
6a+48=-36
then to get 6a on its own, you take away 48 from both sides
6a=-84
then you divide both sides by 6 to get the value of a
a=-14

WILL MARK THE BRAINLEIST Find the surface of the rectangle prism ,show all of your work
trapecia [35]
The answer is 108 as your surface area.

Work:
To find surface area, you find the area of each side and add it all together. For the bottom and the top sides, it’s 6 x 3 which equals to 18. 18 + 18 = 36. Then, 3 x 4 = 12. 12 + 12 = 24. 6 x 4 = 24. 24 + 24 = 48. Then, you add it all together which equals to 108. If what I did doesn’t makes sense, I’ll explain it more detailed here.

So, I found the area of the bottom side and multiplied it by 2 to represent the top and bottom sides. Then, I did the same thing for the other sides if that makes sense. I’m really sorry if I’m not explaining it well. I’m better at doing the work in my head and not on paper or explaining it to other people.

Anyway, hope this helps!

Helpppppppp pleaseeeeee

Answer:

7a + b - 16c

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have

7a-3b+c-8c+4b-9c

When it comes to problem like these, you need to combine like terms.

There's only one 'a' number, so that one remains the same.

Next, we have -3b and 4b. (-3b+4b)= b

Finally, there's (c-8c-9c).

(-8c-9c)= -17c

Take that and add the positive 'c' to it.

(-17c+c)= -16c

Put it all together now to get:

7a + b - 16c

I hope that helped and helped you understand at least a little

:)
