The perimeter of the rectangle and the triangle shown are the same. Write an equation to represent this situation, and solve for x. Then, find the perimeter of each shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a polygon = Sum of all sides of the polygon

Perimeter of the given rectangle = 2[(5x - 2) + (3x - 0.5)]

                                                      = 2[8x - 2.5]

                                                      = (16x - 5)

Perimeter of the given triangle = (2x + 3) + (2x + 3) + (10x - 5)

                                                   = 14x + 1

Since perimeter of the rectangle and triangle are same, equation will be

(16x - 5) = (14x + 1)

16x - 14x = 5 + 1

2x = 6

x = 3

Perimeter = (16x - 5)

                 = 48 - 5

                 = 43 units

3x^3-x^2+6x-9
