Question

The perimeter of a regular 5-sided figure is 25 units, and the length of each side is x + 2 units. What is the value of x?

Answer 1

x = 3 un

Explanation:

25 ÷ 5 = 5

Each side must be 5 units.

5 un - 2 un = 3

x = 3 un

Check:

3 un + 2 un = 5 un

5 un + 5 un + 5 un + 5 un + 5 un = 25 un
