7x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
add all the sides of the pentagon and make it equal to the perimeter of the square which is 4y
sides of the pentagon are
5x+3
2x+3
7x+4
9x-10
5x+8
28x+8=4y
7x+2 = y
7x+2 = answer

another way :
in a standardized test you may want to use real numbers
make x equal a prime number like 3
so then the sides are
18
9
25
17
23
=
92
then divide by 4
23
then divide by 3
which is 7 remainder of 2
which is
7x+2
There would be 3 2/12 left.
2/3 x 1/4 = 2/12
Hope this helps!
Sorryyyy :C
The factors would be (x +7) and (x - 1)
Your answer would be 3/4 = 15/20 = 75/100
Now their are two ways to figure out this problem.
You can look at the relationship with 3 and 15. 3 x 5 is 15 so you can determine that something x 5 equals 20. Well 20 x 5 = 4 so your answer is 3/4.
You would then do the same thing with 15/20.
20 x 5= 100, so do 15 x 5 which is 75. Answer is 75/100
Now here is the 2nd way you could have done it.
well we know that 3/4 equals .75 and that equals 75/100 as a fraction. Then divide top and bottom by 5 to get 15/20.
