Question

Katrina is fencing her yard, which is shaped as a rhombus. She used (5x + 1) meters of fencing material for one side and (7x - 11) meters for the adjacent side.

What is the perimeter of the yard?
Answer 116 meters
124 meters
140 meters
168 meters

Answer 1

7x - 11 = 5x + 1
7x -5x = 1 + 11

2x = 12

x = 6

2(7(6)) - 11) + 2(5(6)) + 1) = Perimeter

62 + 62 = 124 units
