Sagot :

Answer:

3x - 4 =  32

2x =  24

5x + 10 = 70

4x - 8 = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached image

Perimeter = sum of sides of the quadrilateral

166 = 4x - 8 + 5x + 10 + 2x + 3x - 4

166 = 14x - 2

combine like terms

166 + 2 = 14x

168 = 14x

x = 12

substitute for x in each of the sides

3x - 4 = 3(12) - 4 = 32

2x = 2 x 12 = 24

5x + 10 = 5(12) + 10 = 70

4x - 8 = 4(12) - 8 = 40
