Question

Help with geometry! Given the square below, solve for x.

Answer 1

I got 6. But I feel like there's a step that comes after that? Like I have to multiply something by 2?? Or did I do this right?

Answer 2

well for a square, all the sides are the same, this means


x+7=4x-11

now all you do is move x to one side and the numbers the other

sooo,

x+7+11=4x-11+11

x+18=4x

x-x+18=4x-x

18=3x

divide by 3 (all sides)

x=18/3

x=6,

you are right!!
