4x=20-8y
x=5-2y now use this value of x in the second equation...
3(5-2y)+6y=15
15-6y+6y=15
15=15 This is true for any y or x value.
So there are infinitely many solutions as the two equations describe the same line.
You have not given us any of the steps that Ricardo took to simplify the
expression, and you also haven't given us the list of choices that includes
the description of his mistake, so you're batting O for two so far.
Other than those minor details, the question is intriguing, and it certainly
draws me in.
If Ricardo made a mistake in simplifying that expression, I'm going to say that
it was most likely in the process of removing the parentheses in the middle.
Now you understand that this is all guess-work, because of all the stuff that you
left out when you copied the question, but I think he probably forgot that the 3x
operates on everything inside the parentheses.
He probably wrote that 3x (x-3) is
either 3x² - 3
or x - 9x .
In reality, when properly simplified,
3x (x - 3) = 3x² - 9x .
Step-by-step explanation:
hope it help you.

Answer:
Surface Area varies by object/shape.
Ask your teacher/learning helper for those formulas of surface area
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area is the sum of all faces (or surfaces) on a 3D shape. A cuboid has 6 rectangular faces. To find the surface area of a cuboid, add the areas of all 6 faces. We can also label the length (l), width (w), and height (h) of the prism and use the formula, SA=2lw+2lh+2hw, to find the surface area.
