Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>1) Determine the perimeter of the square</u>

We're given that the perimeters of the square and the rectangle are equal. Therefore, after finding the perimeter of the square, we will also know the perimeter of the rectangle.

Find the side length of the square using the area formula:

A=l^2 where l is the side length

Plug in the given area 121 in.²

121=l^2

Take the square root of both sides

\sqrt{121} = \sqrt{l^2} \\11=l

Therefore, the side length of the square is 11 inches. Plug this into the perimeter formula:

P=4l where l is the side length

P=4(11)\\P=44

Therefore, the perimeter of the square is 44 inches. The perimeter of the rectangle is also 44 inches.

<u>2) Determine the value of x</u>

Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:

P=2(l+w) where l is the length and w is the width

Plug in 3x and x-2 as the length and width

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

Plug in the perimeter 44 in.

44=2(4x-2)

Expand the parentheses

44=8x-4

Add 4 to both sides to isolate 8x

44+4=8x-4+4\\48=8x

Divide both sides by 8 to isolate x

\frac{48}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}  \\6=x

Therefore, the value of x is 6.

I hope this helps!

Amiraneli [1.4K]

The actual skate park's perimeter is 130 inches.

Explanation:

Step 1; Assume the initial garden has a width of y inches. It is given that the length is 25 inches. The perimeter of any given rectangle is twice the sum of the length and the width of the same rectangle. The initial perimeter is given as 80 inches.

Perimeter = 2 × (length of the rectange + width of the rectangle).

80 = 2 × (25 + y), 40 = 25 + y, y = 40 - 25 = 15

So the initial park has a width of 15 inches.

Step 2; Now we calculate the actual skate park's perimeter. The length is given as 50 inches and the width was found to be 15 inches.

Perimeter = 2 × (length of the rectange + width of the rectangle).

Perimeter = 2 × (50 + 15) = 2 × 65 = 130 inches.
