Hi!

Our goal is to isolate x on one side by doing the same operation on both sides.

First let's use the distribution property.
-2 x 6 = -12
-2 x 3 = -6
-12x - 6 = -27 - 5x

Add 6 to both sides
-12x - 6 + 6 = -27 + 6 - 5x
-12x = -21 - 5x

Add 5x to both sides
-12x + 5x = -21 - 5x + 5x
-7x = -21

Divide by -7 on both sides
-7x/-7 = -21/-7
x = 3

The answer is x = 3

Hope this helps! :)

Help find perimeter and area
klio [65]

Answer: perimeter = 96mm, Area = 564mm².

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, it is a trapezium, it has a rectangle joined together by a right angled triangle. Now to find the perimeter, we add all the dimensions together. To get the other side of the rectangle, which is also the perpendicular height of the figure, we take the Pythagoras. Let the perpendicular height = x

Therefore,

25² = ײ + 7²

625 = x² + 49

x² = 625 - 49

x² = 576

x. = √576

= 24.

Now the perimeter

= 20 + 25 + 7 + 20 + 24

= 96mm.

Area of the figure will be

= 1/2( a + b )h

Where a = 20, b = 20 + 7 = 27 and h = 24, now substitute for the values

( 20 + 27) x 24

---------------------

2

= 47 x 24/2

= 47 x 12

= 564mm²
