Answer:
area of the two faces plus sides
The first answer of part A is 32
So 4y means you have to multiply 4 by y, which is 20 since 4x5=20
And then you add 12, which is 32.
The second answer to part A is 40
With the second question of part a, the expression is basically saying 4 times whatever 5+3 is. So 5+3= 8, and 4(8) is 40
For part B, they are equivalent because let’s pretend y=2. 12+4y= 20. And then 4(y+3) would equal 20 because 4(2)=8 and 4(3)=12 and 8+12=20. This might not be the answer that your teacher is looking for, but it’s still a right answer so technically they can’t say it’s wrong unless you have a super unfair teacher
lets say there are 100 girls.
4/5 of 100 is 80, so 80 girls have brown hair.
3/4 of the 80 who have brown hair have long hair.
3/4 of 80 is 60.
so we know that out of 100, 60 have long brown hair.
in simplest fraction form, 60/100= 3/5
