Question

Carl is making the kite shown (shorter sides measure 24 inches) with a perimeter of 120 inches

Answer 1

Answer:

To solve for x the equation would be. (120 - 48) ÷ 2 = X

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because to follow pemdas you do the parenthesis first so you subtract both of the shorter sides. Next since there are two longer sides you divide by two to get the answer. Each longer side is equal to 36 inches.
