Respuesta :

The answer is your mom. Nah it’s B)10

For this case we have that the perimeter of the figure is given by the sum of its sides, they tell us that the perimeter is 62 feet.

So:

Let "x" be the variable that represents the length of the unlabeled wall, so the perimeter is:

[tex]x + 8 + 5 + 13 + 18 + 8 = 62[/tex]

We find the value of "x":

[tex]x = 62-8-5-13-18-8\\x = 10[/tex]

Thus, the length of the unlabeled wall is 10 feet.

Answer:

Option B
