Parallelogram P Q S R is shown. The length of P Q is (2 x + 5) centimeters and the length of R S is (4 x + 1) centimeters. In parallelogram PQSR, what is PQ

9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since PQ and RS are opposite each other, then in a parallelogram, the lengths will be congruent.

Therefore 2x+5=4x+1

2x=4

x=2

If you plug x=2 into the the original equation, you get 9 cm.
