Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The four sides of a square are equal.

7x + 3 = 5x + 8             Subtract 5x from both sides

7x - 5x + 3 = 8              Combine the left

2x + 3 = 8                     Subtract 3 from both sides

2x = 8-3                        Combine the right

2x = 5                           Divide by 2

x = 5/2

x = 2.5

That is not quite the answer

Side = 7x + 3

Side = 7*2.5 + 3

Side = 17.5 + 3

Side = 20.5
