Answer:

perimeter = 2(x + 5)

this is 2x + 10

x = 55 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

this question is a bit weird because they didn't put the units for 5, so I'm assuming it's in inches...

the perimeter of a rectangle will have two of each, so we can put the 2 outside the bracket since it applies to everything. We have x and we have 5 so put those in the bracket with a plus sign because you add when you're calculating the perimeter.

5 + 5 = 10

120 - 10 = 110 inches (this is 2x)

110 ÷ 2 = 55 inches

$(2x-8)(7x+5)=0\iff2x-8=0\ \vee\ 7x+5=0\\\\2x-8=0\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\2x=8\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\boxed{x=4}\\\\7x+5=0\qquad\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\7x=-5\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7}\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{5}{7}}$
