Step-by-step explanation:
1. You can calculate the perimeter of a parallelogram as following:

Where a+b+c+d are the lenghts of the sides.
By definition the parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides, therefore:
a=c and b=d
Then, you can calculate the perimeter as following:
2. Let's call the adjacent side
, then the other side is 2x+3.
3. Substitute values and solve for x:

4. Then the lenghts of the sides are:

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 4x - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )
x² + 4x = 7
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 7 + 4
(x + 2)² = 11 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 2 = ±
( subtract 2 from both sides )
x = - 2 ± 
Thus
x = - 2 -
≈ - 5.32 ( to 2 dec. places )
x = - 2 +
≈ 1.32 ( to 2 dec. places )
