A square wrestling mat has a perimeter of (12x-32) feet. Write an expression in simplest form that represents the side length in feet of the mat

3x -8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is found by adding all the side lengths, but since this is a square, all you have to do to find the perimeter is multiply one side length by 4. In this case, we already have the perimeter so we can just work backward. Instead of multiplying, we have to use the inverse operation since we are working backward which is division. (12x - 32) / 4 is 3x - 8. This is as far as we can simplify because these are two different units and therefore the answer is 3x-8 feet

Hope this helped

Sorry if it's wrong

if you are looking for the unit rate then the answer would be 9 because unit rate is distance divided by time.
