Your answer is -1. hope this helps
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The midsegment VY is half the sum of the parallel bases , that is
VY =
, then
3x + 18 =
(x + 96) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
6x + 36 = x + 96 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x + 36 = 96 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
5x = 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 12
12/18
6/9
2/3
Simply in common factor you know and keep doing it
12/18
BCD:6
2/3
y = 12x represents the gallons of paint used in x hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
CJ uses 3 gallons of paint in 15 minutes,
15 minutes = 3 gallons
1 minutes = 
1 hour = 60 minutes
Gallons of paint used in 1 hour;
1 hour = 
CJ uses 12 gallons of paint in 1 hour.
For x hours = 12*x = 12x
Gallons of paints used = y
y = 12x represents the gallons of paint used in x hours.
