Question

A square has a perimeter represented by the expression −8.8s−20

Write an expression to represent the length of one side of the square
Enter the correct answer in the box

Answer 1

Answer: -2.2s-5

Explanation:

Given : Perimeter of square = −8.8s−20 , where s= length of each side.

Since perimeter of square = 4 (side)

So, length of each side =
`(Perimeter)/(4)`

i.e.
`s=(-8.8s-20)/(4)=-2.2s-5`

Hence, the expression to represent the length of one side of the square = -2.2s-5
