Equilateral triangle have the same side lengths. Perimeter = sum of all sides
(4x - 3) + (4x - 3) + (4x - 3) = 63
Remove parentheses
4x - 3 + 4x - 3 + 4x - 3 = 63
Combine like terms
12x - 9 = 63
12x = 72, x = 6
Solution: x = 6
Answer:
8 packs of bottled water and 14 packs of candy bars
Step-by-step explanation:
Provided,
Each pack of water bottles = 35 bottles
Each pack of candy = 20 candy
Since quantity of candy in each pack is small than quantity of water bottle in each pack, in order to have same quantity in numbers of both bottles and candies,
Purchase quantity of candy packs shall be more than the pack of water bottles.
Further, with this option 1 and 2 are not valid as candy packs are same or less than packs of water bottle.
In option 3 and 4, option 3 have smaller quantities as provided manager bought the least possible quantity.
Accordingly
Option 3
8 packs of water bottle = 
14 packs of candy = 
Since the quantities of water bottles and candies are same this is an opt answer.
The function is

.
This means that as we get from 1 to 2, we have the following values:

, and

.
Similarly, if we check x=3, we have

.
We can see that as x changes by 1 (with greater values), y increases by a factor of 12.
Answer: multiply by 12
The answer is 5/12 because 1/6 converts to 2/6 and 7/12-2/6 is equal to 5/12
