Find the value of x if the perimeter is 24 meters. (the m stands for meters). Be sure to be able to create the equation to solve for x. Type the answer in as a simplified improper fraction. x=

Answer:
x=2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
P=(3x+1)+(x+1)+(3x+1)+(x+1)
24=3x+1+x+1+3x+1+x+1
24=8x+4
24-4=8x
20=8x
x=20/8
x=2.5
P=(3*2.5+1)+(2.5+1)+(3*2.5+1)+(2.5+1)
P=8.5+3.5+8.5+3.5
P=24
