Answer:
-1.8 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
12(x+3)=-8x
Distribute
12x +36 = -8x
Subtract 12x from each side
12x-12x +36 = -8x-12x
36 = -20x
Divide each side by -20
36/-20 = -20x/-20
-9/5 = x
Changing to decimal form
-1.8 =x

Answer:
65 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem involves finding the perimeter of a rectangle, then making adjustments to remove parts of the perimeter that aren't wanted.
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula ...
P = 2(L+W)
For Aubrey's 12' × 8' room, the perimeter is ...
P = 2(12' +8') = 40'
This is the length of the border Aubrey needs at the ceiling.
__
At "waist-high", we need to subtract the total width of all the windows and doors. That total is ...
3' + 4' + 3' + 5' = 15'
So, the waist-high border is 40' -15' = 25'.
__
The total amount of border Aubrey needs is ...
ceiling border + waist-high border = 40' + 25' = 65'.
Aubrey needs 65 feet of border.
