X = 2
A square has 4 sides. To get the perimeter of a square, you could multiply the length of one side by 4.
One side of the larger triangle is x inches plus an additional 8 inches, which can be written as (x+8)
To get the perimeter of the larger square, multiply the expression (x+8) by 4. The question states the larger square’s perimeter is 40 inches.
You end up with this equation: 4(x + 8) = 40
To solve first distribution 4 into (x + 8).
4x + 32 = 40 | subtract 32 from both sides
4x = 8 | divide each side by 4
x = 2 inches
So the side length of the original square is 2 inches. To check your work, go back and plug x = 2 into the original equation. 8 in + 2 in = 10 inches, and 10 inches x 4 = 40 inches, so x = 2 is the solution
The value of x is 5.5. I got this answer by first distributing -3 amongst (x-11), and distributing 7 amongst (2x-5). Next I combined like terms and subtracted 3x from 5x, and added -35 and 2. Next I subtracted 33 from both sides. Next I subtracted 14x from both sides. And finally I divided both sides by -12 to get the final answer of 5.5.
