Question

Ruby is building a pentagon-shaped garden and a hexagon-shaped garden.

.the perimeter of the pentagonal garden is 47 1/2ft

.The perimeter of the hexagonal garden is 61 1/2ft

Witch statement is false about this scenario?

A) the equation to find the length of each side of the pentagonal garden is 6x=47 1/2

B) The length of each side of the pentagonal garden 9 1/2 ft


C) The equation to find the length of each side of the hexagonal garden is 6x=61 1/2

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

A

Explanation:

If x is the side length of the regular pentagon, the perimeter is the sum of its 5 side lengths: 5x. To find the side length, we can use the formula that sets this equal to the known perimeter:

5x = 47 1/2 . . . . . . mismatch with statement A

Statement A is false.
