Question

10. The length of a side of a square is represented by (24 – 3x) feet. What is the

length of the side of the square when r = 6?

Answer 1

The length of the side of the square is 6 feet.

Explanation:

Given,

Length of side of square =
`(24 - 3x)\ feet`

According to question, x = 6

So we have to substitute x with 6 in the given expression.

Length of side of square =
`(24-3x)= 24-3*6=24-18=6\ feet`.

Thus the length of the side of the square is 6 feet.
