Q. The expression 4x gives the perimeter of a square with a side length of x units. What is the perimeter of a square with a side length of 75 units?
Understand formula for perimeter: Understand the formula for the perimeter of a square.The perimeter P of a square is given by the formula P=4×side, where “side” is the length of one side of the square.
Plug side length into formula: Plug the given side length into the formula.Given the side length x=75 units, we substitute this value into the formula to calculate the perimeter.P=4×(75)
Perform multiplication for perimeter: Perform the multiplication to find the perimeter.P = 4×(75)=(4×5)/7=720
Simplify fraction: Simplify the fraction, if necessary.The fraction 720 is already in its simplest form, so no further simplification is needed.
