Answer:
396
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a square.
That means that all four sides are equal.
So the two expressions you have been given are equal.
2.5x + 76.5 = 12x - 9 Subtract 2.5x from both sides.
-2.5x -2.5x
76.5 = 9.5x - 9 Add 9 to both sides
9 9
85.5 = 9.5x Divide by 9.5
85.5/9.5 = x
x = 9
That is just the value for x. It is not the answer
Side = 12x - 9
Side = 12*9 - 9
Side = 108 - 9
Side = 99
The perimeter = 4 * Side
The perimeter = 4 * 99
Perimeter = 396
