the length of a side can be found by substituting this value into either expression.

Consider all sides of the same length.
5x - 27 = 2x - 6
Solve for x:
3x = 21
x = 7
Now you can find the side length by substituting x with its value.
5*7 - 27 = 35 - 27 = 8

thank you
Rival:
It's 7
vybez:
how
Rival:
1.because you add 27 on both sides, 2.then simplify 2x-6+27 to 2x+21., 3.Subtract 2x from both sides.4.simplify5x-2x to 3x. 5.Divide both sides by 3 .6Simplify 21/3 to 7 = 7
