Answer:
The value of x is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Side length of square = x+2
Perimeter of square = 44 cm
As all sides of a square are equal, therefore,
Perimeter of square = 4s
Putting all the values,
44 = 4(x+2)
44 = 4x+8
44-8 = 4x
36 = 4x
4x = 36
Dividing both sides by 4
[tex]\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{36}{4}\\x=9[/tex]
Hence,
The value of x is 9.
