Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so the trick here is to realize that all sides are equal on a square. Because of this we can create an equation to solve for x. Since we have (5x+1) and 2(x+5) for the sides, we get the equation 5x+1 = 2(x+5), or 5x+1 = 2x+10. Now we can just solve, and get 3x+1 = 10, 3x = 9, and x = 3.

Answer 2

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of a square are equal

5x + 1 = 2(x + 5)

5x + 1 = 2x + 10

5x - 2x = 10 - 1

3x = 9

x = 9/3

x = 3

Input 3 into either of the equations

5x + 1 =

5(3) + 1 =

15 + 1 =

16

2(x + 5) =

2(3 + 5) =

2(8) =
