The value of the perimeter of the triangle in feet is equal to the value of the area of the triangle in square feet use a graph to find X

Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up an equation using the information given to us:
x+x-2+6=[tex]\frac{1}{2}*(x-2)*6[/tex]
Simplify both sides
2x+4=3(x-2)
Distribute the 3 on the right side
2x+4=3(x)-3(2)
2x+4=3x-6
Move like terms to one side
x=10
[tex]\stackrel{\textit{value of the perimeter in feet}}{(x)+(x-2)+(6)}~~ = ~~\stackrel{\textit{value of the area in }ft^2}{\cfrac{1}{2}\underset{base}{(x-2)}\underset{height}{6}} \\\\\\ 2x+4=3x-6\implies 4=x-6\implies 10=x[/tex]
