Answer:
50
Explanation:
P= 2l + 2w Formula for a perimeter
P= 184 given
l= 4x+2 given
w= 5x given
184= 2(4x+2) + 2(5x) substitution
184= 8x+4+ 10x distributive property
184= 18x+4 combine like terms
184 -4 =18x +4 -4 subtract 4 from both sides to get 18x alone
180=18x
180/18= 18x/18 divide both sides by 18 to get x alone
10= x
x=10
Side PS= 5x since it is parallel to RQ which is 5x
5(x)=5(10)=50
