Size square × 4 = size triangle × 3
(2X × 4 ) = [(2X +1/3) × 3]

8X = [(6X+1)/3×3]
8X = 6X+1
8X -6X = 1
2X = 1
X= 1/2

Answer : The value of 'x' is \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation :

As we know that,

The perimeter of square = 4a

The perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3s

('a' is the side square and 's' is the side of equilateral triangle)

Given:

Side of square = a = 2x

Side of equilateral triangle = s = (2x+1/3)

As per question, the square and the triangle have the same perimeter. That means,

Perimeter of square = Perimeter of equilateral triangle

4a = 3s

Now put the value of 'a' and 's', we get the value of 'x'.

4\times (2x)=3\times (2x+\frac{1}{3})

8x=6x+1

8x-6x=1

2x=1

x=\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the value of 'x' is \frac{1}{2}

How to solve -d/6+12=-7
Delicious77 [7]
IF you are solving for d:

isolate the D, do the opposite of PEMDAS.

-d/6 + 12 = -7

(subtract 12 from both sides)

-d/6 + 12 (-12) = -7 (-12)

-d/6 = -19

(multiply 6 to both sides)

-d/6(6) = -19(6)

-d = -19(6)

-d = -144

-d/-1 = -144/-1

d = 144

hope this helps
