G,R,T I feel like they are trying to throw you off with big words
Perimeter of a triangle = all 3 sides added together
x + (x - 4) + (x - 4) = 19
3x - 8 = 19
3x = 19 + 8
3x = 27
x = 27/3
x = 9 <==
Answer:
Length = x feet = 95 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The labeled triangles are not included in the question, therefore, I will calculate the length of the rectangular space for Kelly's dog
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)
Perimeter of a rectangle = 236 feet
Width = 23 feet
Length = x feet
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)
236 = 2(x + 23)
236 = 2x + 46
236 - 46 = 2x
190 = 2x
x = 190/2
x = 95 feet
Length = x feet = 95 feet
