20 is the area
And 18 is the perimeter
This is a linear function.
A linear function is a straight line that has a slope, and follows the formula: <em>
y = mx + b</em>
In which:
y = y
m = slope
x = x
b = y -intercept
hope this helps<em />
Solving for "y" means that we need to get y to be on one side of the equation. It should look like y= something. To get the y by itself, we need to get rid of that -3. To do that, we'll have to divide by -3 (because even though there's a y being divided, the -3 is still the numerator). 6/-3 is -1/2. Therefore your answer is y=-1/2

Remember to follow PEMDAS, and to only combine terms with like variables.
First, distribute the 2 to all terms within the parenthesis:
2(2p + 4t) = 2(2p) + 2(4t) = 4p + 8t
3 + 4p + 8t, or (D), is your answer choice, for it cannot be simplified anymore.
