Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of the triangle you need to add up all the sides, so if all the sides are 2x-3 the equation will look like this;

2x-3+2x-3+2x-3=27

which when combining like terms will leave it to be;

6x-9=27

Than move all the factors besides x over to the right side;

6x-9+9=27+9

6x = 36

6x/6 = 36/6

x = 6

so your answer will be x=6

Evaluate the expression. 5^2−4⋅6+11 Enter your answer in the box.

mart [117]

Explanation:

This question's it's about the order of operations. P-parenthesis, E-exponents, M-multiply, D-divide, A-add, and S-subtract. It can also go left to right.

Do exponents first.

$5^2=5*5=25$

$25-4*6+11$

Then, multiply left to right.

$4*6=24$

$25-24+11$

And add/subtract left to right.

$25-24=1$

$1+11=12$

$\boxed{=12}$

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!
