A prism is a polyhedron comprising an n-sided polygonal base, a second base which is a translated copy (rigidly moved without rotation) of the first, and n other faces (necessarily all parallelograms) joining corresponding sides of the two bases (called lateral faces).

Hence:

1. if the base of a prism has n sides, then the prism has n lateral sides;

2. by the definition, a prism has 2 equal bases and from the first part it has n lateral faces that together form n+2 faces.

-3(1-2x)-3=-20-8x what is the work and answer

You have to keep order of operations in mind.

1. Take care of the parentheses; distribute.
-3+6x-3=-20-8x
Simplified: 6x-6=-20-8x

2. Isolate the x variable.
Add 8x to both sides and add 6 to both sides.
14x=-14

3. Solve for x.
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x=-1
