Question

the perimeter of a square EFGH is 48 inches and EF=6x-42 what is the value of x?

Answer 1

Can you solve for \( x \) in \( 4 (6x-42)=48 \) ?

Answer 2

(24x-42)-48?

Answer 3

Yes but clever one is \( 6x-42=12 \Rightarrow x= \frac{54}6 \)

Answer 4

so x equals 54?

Answer 5

no x=54/6=9

Answer 6

\( x-42=12 \Rightarrow x= \frac{54}6 \Rightarrow x = 9 \)
