Solve:
12x + 4 = 18x -2

hope this helps!!

12x + 4 = 18x -2

12x + 6 = 18x

6 = 18x

x = 3

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You subtract 12x from both sides giving you 6x.

Then you add 2 to both sides giving you 6 on one side.

Then divide by 6 on both sides

12x + 4 = 18x - 2

4 = 6x -2

6 = 6x

6/ 6 = 1x

answer is 8x+24

area of vanessa's patio = length × width

given, length = (3x² + 5x + 10)

width = (x² - 3x - 1)

area of vanessa's patio = (3x² + 5x + 10)(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x²(x² - 3x - 1) + 5x(x² - 3x - 1) + 10(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x⁴ - 9x³ - 3x² + 5x³ - 15x² - 5x + 10x² - 30x - 10

= 3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10

hence, expression of vanessa's patio = (3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10)
