The perimeter of a square (perimeter = 4 times one side) is less than 16 inches. One side of the square measures x. What are the viable solutions for the value of x?

x > 4 with no restrictions

x > 4 with only positive values

x < 4 with only positive values

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is option 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to form an inequality expression and then solve it. Let x be the side of the square :

[tex]4x < 16[/tex]

[tex]x < 16 \div 4[/tex]

[tex]x < 4[/tex]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

You can't have negative values. So x should be greater than 0 and less than 4.

0<x < 4

which is the short way of writing what I just said.

The correct answer is x<4 with only positive values. C
