First you simplify: 3x=21
Then you divide both sides by 3: x=7

To find the perimeter of a rhombus, you need to add up the lengths of all four sides. In a rhombus, all four sides are congruent. Given that two consecutive sides are represented by 3x - 6 and x + 14, we can set up an equation: 3x - 6 = x + 14. Solving for x gives x = 10. Substituting x back into the expressions gives the side lengths as 24 and 24. Therefore, the perimeter is 4 times the length of one side, which is 4 * 24 = 96 units.
One square foot equals 144 square inches, so 96 square inches would equal 2/3rds of a foot or 0.666666 repeating.
Ah, what a lovely question! To find the number of square feet in a rectangle, you simply multiply the length by the width. In this case, 48 feet multiplied by 96 feet equals 4,608 square feet. Just imagine all the happy little trees you could fit in that space!
For area measurements, you multiply the length by the width. Here the calculation gives you an answer of 96 square feet.
96 feet is 32 yards.
