X=12.5
If the perimeter is 90
90=3x+3x+15
Combine like terms
90=6x+15
Subtracts 15 from both sides
75=6x
Divide by six to get x by itself
12.5=x

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
10*y-(80)=0
Pull out like factors :
10y - 80 = 10 • (y - 8)
Solve : 10 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solve : y-8 = 0
Add 8 to both sides of the equation :
y = 8
Alright, so the first step we are gonna do to solve this problem is subtract since Mason ate 5 ounces of the peanuts and so, we need to subtract 5 out of 29.8.
29.8 - 5 = 24.8
So, now there is 24.8 ounces.
Now we move onto the next step which is division. As you can see in the question it says "Then he divides the rest of the peanuts equally among 4 friends."
24. 8 ÷ 4 = 6.2
Since the answer is supposed to be a decimal..that's your answer!
So overall, each of Mason's friends get 6.2 ounces of peanuts.
Hope this helps!
