Blank 1: 3
Blank 2: 27
Blank 3: 21
you have to distribute the three to everything inside the parenthesis, and because it's directly in front of the parenthesis it's being multiplied.
3(x - 9) = 3x - 27
Now you need to isolate the y, in this e ample you need to add 6 to both sides
the final equation should be:
y = 3x - 21
G = 18.5. Add 1.5 to both sides, and calculate
<span>4 + x + 4 + x x4 4(x + 4) 4x</span>

Answer: 72</h3>
Divide the 9 inch side into 9 "1 inch" sub-segments
Divide the 4 inch side into 2 "2 inch" segments
Divide the 12 inch side into 4 "3 inch" segments
So we have 9*2*4 = 18*4 = 72 boxes that can fit.
Hey there!
Apply fraction cross multiply: if a/b = c/d , then a *d = b*c
2 ( 5x - 2 ) = ( 2x + 4 ) * 4
expand : 2 (5x-2 ) => 2*5x - 2*2 => 10x - 4
expand : ( 2x +4 ) * 4 => 2x * 4 + 4*4 => 8x + 16
10x - 4 = 8x+16
add 4 to both sides:
10x-4+4 = 8x+16+4
simplify :
10x = 8x + 20
subtract 8x from both sides:
10x -8x = 8x+20-8x
simplify:
2x = 20
Therefore:
x = 20 / 2
x = 10
Hope that helps!
