Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a polygon = Sum of all sides of the polygon

Perimeter of the given rectangle = 2[(5x - 2) + (3x - 0.5)]

                                                      = 2[8x - 2.5]

                                                      = (16x - 5)

Perimeter of the given triangle = (2x + 3) + (2x + 3) + (10x - 5)

                                                   = 14x + 1

Since perimeter of the rectangle and triangle are same, equation will be

(16x - 5) = (14x + 1)

16x - 14x = 5 + 1

2x = 6

x = 3

Perimeter = (16x - 5)

                 = 48 - 5

                 = 43 units

Aaron bought 7/8 of a yard of fabric and it cost him $4.10. What does a full yard cost?
gayaneshka [121]
Divide 4.10 by 7 to get about 0.59 (round up because you can't get part of a penny) and that gives you 1/8 of a yard's price. Then multiply that by 8 to get a full yard for $4.72.
