Question

How to find perimeter with equations

Answer 1

Answer:

12x + 28 = p

20x + 4 = p

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that both shapes are square, the perimeter of a square is the equation:

4 * x = p

Where x is the length of one side. Plug the variables in for the first square:

4 * (3x + 7) = p

Expand the brackets:

4 * 3x = 12x

4 * 7 = 28

12x + 28 = p

For the second square, plug the variables in again:

4 * (5x + 1) = p

Expand the brackets:

4 * 5x = 20x

4 * 1 = 4

20x + 4 = p

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In blue colour square

Perimeter= 4 × side

= 4 (3x +7)

=12x +28 unit

In green colour square

Perimeter= 4 × side

= 4 ( 5x+1)

= 20x +4 unit
