How can I find the unknown side lengths when given the area or circumference of a figure?

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Set up the area/circumference equations using x as the unknown variable. Then, solve for that variable and apply the correct unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example,

Find the side length of a square with an area of 49 square centimeters.

Since $area=s^{2}$ , i can write $49=s^2\\then take the square root of each side to solve for s.\\s=\sqrt{49} \\s=7 centimeters$

What is the value of x in the equation 1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2)?

irakobra [83]

1.5x+6-3=4.5(x-2)
1.5x+6-3=4.5x-9
1.5x+3=4.5x-9
1.5x-4.5x+3=-9
1.5x-4.5x=-9-3
-3x=-9-3
-3=-12

X=4
