Answer:
72f+40
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x= 6.85 or 89/13
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter is sum of all sides added, so add them all and set them equal to 84
4(x-3) + 3x - 1 + 6x + 8 = 84
distribute
4x + 12 + 3x - 1 + 6x + 8 = 84
combine like terms
13x - 5 = 84
solve for x
x = 89/13 = 6.85
<span>width = x
</span><span>length = x+5
2x + 2(x+5) = 46
2x + 2x + 10 = 46
4x = 46 - 10
4x = 36
x = 36/4 </span><span>
x = 9 in </span> ← width
length = x+5 = 9 + 5 = 14 in
<span>
Area = 9 * 14 = 126 in</span>²<span>
</span>
