Explanation:

Point Q is located at (0,w). We see that x = 0 and y = w.

So we'll replace x with 0 and y with w. Then we solve for w.

2x+3y = -12

2(0)+3(w) = -12

0+3w = -12

3w = -12

3w/3 = -12/3

w = -4

In the second to last step, I divided both sides by 3 to undo the multiplication of 3. Saying 3w means "3 times w".

Side note: The point Q is the y intercept as this is the location where the diagonal line 2x+3y=-12 crosses the vertical y axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the initial area of the sheet  = 450 sq inches.

After folding the sheet in to thirds ONCE :

The area of the each rectangle so formed   =   =  150 sq. inches

So, the area of each rectangle  = 150 sq inches

After folding the sheet in to thirds TWICE :

The area of the each rectangle so formed   =   =  50 sq. inches

So, the area of each rectangle  = 50 sq inches

So, as we can see after two rounds of folding, we get in total 9 rectangles.

The area of each rectangle so formed   =   50 sq inches.

50 sq inches  = of the total area.

Hence, the given statement is not true.
