Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
33769/181
Discussion:
Each term contains "x" so factoring it out gives
x( 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17) = 71 (*)
Use common factor (17*14*4 = 952) as the denominator to combine terms:
1/4 = (17*14)/ 952 = 238/952
1/14 = (17*4)/952 = 68/952
1/17 = (14*4)/952 = 56/952
so 1/4 + 1/14 + 1/17 = (238 + 68 + 56)/ 952 = 362/952 = 181/476
Substituting in (*) gives
x ( 181/476) = 71 => multiply both sides by 476/181
x = (71 * 476)/181 => 71* 476 =33769
x = 33769/181
Thank you,

Answer:
3x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
The polygon is regular ,<em> </em>so all the sides would be equal.
Thus all sides measure same as <u>3x</u><u>+</u><u>2</u>
