Answer:

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is

P = 2(l+w)

P = 2( 3x+2 + 4x)

Adding like terms

P = 2( 7x+2)

We know the perimeter is 74 units

74 = 2 ( 7x+2)

Divide by 2

74/2 = 2/2 (7x+2)

37 = 7x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

37-2 = 7x+2-2

35 = 7x

Divide by 7

35/7 = 7x/7

5 =x

We want to find the length RS = PQ = 4x

RS = 4x = 4*5 = 20

KX equals X +4 find K7
Andre45 [30]
KX = x+4 so solve for k. 
Divide both sides of the equation by x and you get K=4. 
Plug it in, and you get (4)(7)=28
Your answer is 28.

Solve x2 = 12x – 15 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation?
REY [17]
X ·2 = 12x - 15

2x = 12x - 15

2x + (-12x) = (12x - 15) + (-12x)

Result: x = 3/2
