Respuesta :

All sides of a square are equal, so set the two equations equal to each other and solve.

5x - 8 = 3x + 14

2x - 8 = 14

2x = 22

x = 11
Form an inequality since it is a square

5x-8=3x+14

you then need to subtract 3x from both sides

2x-8=14

Add 8 to each side

2x=22

divide by 2

x=11

Hope this helped
