Question

PLZ HELP AND EXPLAIN... Each side of a square is (7 + 3x) units. Which is the perimeter of the square?

Answer 1

a square has four sides and the perimeter is the total measurement of all of the side lengths.

\[s + s + s + s = 4s \]
\[4(7+ 3x) = ? \]

Answer 2

s = side length

Answer 3

So...(7+3x)=10 ?

Answer 4

no i meant for you to solve \(4(7+3x)\)

Answer 5

so like this...4*7=28+3x=31? IDK

Answer 8

\[4(7 - 3x) = 4(7) + 4(-3x) = 28 - 12x\]
