Hi there! :)

4x + 5x + 12 = 6(x - 2)
Combine like terms and distribute the coefficient outside of the parenthesis:
9x + 12 = 6(x) + 6(-2)
9x + 12 = 6x - 12
Subtract 6x from both sides:
9x - 6x + 12 = 6x - 6x - 12
3x + 12 = -12
Subtract 12 from both sides:
3x + 12 - 12 = -12 - 12
3x = -24
Divide both sides by 3:
3x/3 = -24/3
x = -8.

Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of the base of the prism are 4" by 2"; the height is 2".
Looking at the base, we see that (4)(2), or (8) 1" cubes would cover it exactly and wholly. We'd have a 3-dimensional prism with one layer of 1" cubes.
Now if we add a second layer right on top of the first layer, we'd have used (16) 1" cubes.
Answer:
6x² + 15
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x.
"the square of a number"
x²
"the product of 6 and the square of a number"
6x²
"the product of 6 and the square of a number plus 15"
6x² + 15
The coefficient is the number that multiplies the variable, so it is 6.
