17x-153 is the required expression for the perimeter of this pentagon and value of x is 9.
What is Expression?
An expression is combination of variables, numbers and operators.
We know that perimeter is sum of all the sides of a polygon.
The sides of pentagon are (4x-1), 3x+2, 3x+2, 3x+2, 4x-1
The perimeter of pentagon is 157 units
Now let us find the expression
Perimeter=4x-1+4x-1+3x+2+3x+2+3x+2
157=4x-1+4x-1+3x+2+3x+2+3x+2
Add all the like terms
157=17x+4
17x+4=157
17x+4-157
17x-153
17x=153
Divide both sides by 17
x=9
Hence, 17x-153 is the required expression for the perimeter of this pentagon and value of x is 9.
