Question

The triangle and rectangle have the same perimeter.find the value of x.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of triangle = a + b + c

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)

=> x + 5 + x + 6 + x + 7 = 2(2x - 1 + x + 7)

=> 3x + 18 = 2(3x + 6)

=> 3x + 18 = 6x + 12

=> 3x - 6x = 12 - 18

=> -3x = -6

=> x = -6/-3

=> x = 2

Answer 2

Answer:

X=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle

3x+18

Rectangle

6x+12

Same perimeter:

3x+18=6x+12             //-12

3x+6=6x                   //-3x

6=3x                         //:3

2=x
