3x - 12

Triple a number would be 3x instead of x cubed as it is not asking for a number multiplied by itself three times.

-12 is the second half as since you don’t know whether or not the variable will be larger or smaller than the constant, it is safer to put it on the other half.

Thus, this equation fills in the worded format.

Hope this helps!

Octogon
sides=4
draw lines from the outside angles to the center so they form 8 equal triangle sections
find the area of each triangle and multiply by 8

area of triangle=1/2 base times height
base=4
the height is the distance from the center of one side of the octogon, to the center=5
so area=4 times 1/2 times 5=4 times 5=10

8 triangles so 8 times 10=80
the answer is 80cm^2
the diagram included below shows area for a pentagon
