For what value of x is the perimeter of shape 186 cm
Solution:
Given, the figure represents a rectangle.
We have to find the value of x.
Given, the perimeter is 186 cm.
We know, perimeter = sum of all sides
186 = 2[(5x + 6) + (2x + 66)]
186/2 = 5x + 2x + 6 + 66
93 = 7x + 72
By transposing,
7x = 93 - 72
7x = 21
x = 21/7
x = 3
Therefore, the value of x is 3 cm.
