Y - x = 28
y + x + 156

I think is −  

2

3(9y+52)

Step-by-step explanation:

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.

the anwser is x< -17/2
