Question

Write and solve an equation to find the unknown side length x (in feet).

Answer 1

Answer:

11.9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the value of 'x' and we are asked to set up an equation to find the value of x. In equation we must remember to get all the numerical values to one side and all the non-numerical values to the other while remembering to keep the equation balanced for example if we add 4 on one side we must do it to the other side to keep the equation balanced so,

→ x + 5.2 + 11.1 + 6.4 = 34.6

⇒ Simplify equation

→ x + 22.7 = 34.6

⇒ Minus 22.7 from both sides to isolate x

→ x = 11.9 feet
