The question has an error because the letter g does not make sense in the context.
I will assume that the g is really the number 9.
In that case, the equation to solve would be:
You can solve for x following these steps:
1) make
=>
2) Given that the basis are equal the exponents have to be equal =>
2x = 2(3x - 4)
3) Solve:
2x = 6x - 8
6x - 2x = 8
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2 which is the option B) which leads me to think that a 9 instead of g in the equation should be right.
Under that assumption, the answer is the option B) x = 2.

Answer:
58 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The room is already broken down into two smaller rectangles.
The smaller of the two measures 4 ft by 2 ft. , so substitute 4 for
and 2 for
.
(smaller rectangle)
, or
.
(smaller rectangle)
The larger measures 10 ft by 5 ft, so using the same method, multiply times
.
(larger rectangle)
, or
.
(larger rectangle)
Add the two rectangles' areas together to find the total area of the room.
8 + 50 = 58
