    ANSWER KEY:

    1. 90=2(x +2)+2(x )

    90=2 x + 4+2 x
    90=4 x + 4
    90−4=4 x
    86=4 x
    86 4 x
    =
    4 4
    21.5=x
    Therefore, the x is 21.5 cm.

    2. 89 cm=(x−1)cm+( x−1)cm+( x −1) cm

    89=( x−1)+( x−1)+( x−1)


    89=3 x−3
    89=3 x−3
    89−3=3 x
    86=3 x
    86 3 x
    =
    3 3
    28.67=x
    Therefore, the x is 28.67 cm.

    3. 96 cm=( x ) cm+ ( x+ 1 ) cm+ ( x +2 ) cm

    96=( x )+ ( x+1 ) + ( x +2 )
    96=3 x+ 3
    96−3=3 x
    93=3 x
    93 3 x
    =
    3 3
    31=x
    Therefore, the x is 31 cm.
    4. 50 cm=2(2 x−1)cm+2( x +2)cm

    50=2(2 x−1)+2( x +2)


    50=4 x−2+ 4 x +4
    50=8 x+2
    50−2=8 x
    48=8 x
    48 8 x
    =
    8 8
    6=x
    Therefore, the x is 6 cm.

    5. 40 cm=(x +1)cm+( x+1) cm+(x +1) cm+(x +1)cm+(x+1)cm

    40=( x+1)+( x +1)+( x +1)+( x+ 1)+( x+1)


    40=5 x+ 5
    40−5=5 x
    35=5 x
    35 5 x
    =
    5 5
    7=x
    Therefore the x is 7cm.
