Question

How do I solve for x ?

Plsss helppppp

Answer 1

Note that:

• Perimeter of parallelogram: 108 ft
• 2(x/4 + 2x) = 108

Solve for x. Then find the measurements of PQ and QR.

• 2(x/4 + 2x) = 108
• => (x/2 + 4x) = 108
• => (x/2 + 8x/2) = 108
• => (9x/2) = 108
• => 9x = 216
• => x = 216/9 = 24
• => PQ = x/4
• => PQ = 24/4 = 6 feet
• => QR = 2x
• => QR = 2(24) = 48 feet
