The cost of the tank and filter system is $280. The base of the tank is a square with a perimeter of 60 inches what is the side length of the base of the tank

The side length of of the base of the tank is 15 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Cost of the tank and filter system = $280

Perimeter of tank base = 60 inches

The perimeter of tank is in the shape of square.

We have to find the side length of the base of the tank.

Perimeter of tank base = Perimeter of square =

Thus, the side length of of the base of the tank is 15 inches.

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
