Question

A flower pot’s base has six sides that are all the same length. Each side measures x−6 units. The base’s perimeter is 78 units.

Answer 1

So if you divide 78 by six you get 13. 78/6=13
So we want x minus 6 to equal thirteen we have to make x a number that will equal 13 when we subtract 6. So we can just add 13+6 to get 19. And 19-6=13. So x=19, does that make sense?

Answer 2

Answer:

x= 19
