Question

ABCD is a rectangle. Use the properties of a rectangle to determine the value of x.Question options:A) x = –1.5B) x = –2C) x = 4D) x = 5

Answer 1

One of the property of a rectangle is

`\text{opposite sides are equal}`

This implies that

`8x-12=20`

Solvig for x we have

`\begin{gathered} 8x=20+12 \\ 8x=32 \\ x=(32)/(8) \\ x=4 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the value of x is 4
