Answer:
16.9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Sometimes the easiest way to work these problems is to get a little help from technology. The GeoGebra program/app can tell you the length of a "polyline", but it takes an extra segment to complete the perimeter. It shows the perimeter to be ...
14.87 + 2 = 16.87 ≈ 16.9 . . . units
_____
The distance formula can be used to find the lengths of individual segments. It tells you ...
d = √((Δx)² +(Δy)²)
where Δx and Δy are the differences between x- and y-coordinates of the segment end points.
If the segments are labeled A, B, C, D, E in order, the distances are ...
AB = √(5²+1²) = √26 ≈ 5.099
BC = √(1²+3²) = √10 ≈ 3.162
CD = Δx = 3
DE = √(3²+2²) = √13 ≈ 3.606
EA = Δy = 2
Then the perimeter is ...
P = AB +BC +CD +DE +EA = 5.099 +3.162 +3 +3.606 +2 = 16.867
P ≈ 16.9
ST=4
3x-8+x=2x
4x-8=2x
-8=-2x
4=x

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
3x + 5(2 + x) = 4x - 7
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Distributive Property] Distribute 5: 3x + 10 + 5x = 4x - 7
- [Addition] Combine like terms: 8x + 10 = 4x - 7
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4x on both sides: 4x + 10 = -7
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 10 on both sides: 4x = -17
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 4 on both sides: x = -17/4
