Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

So the perimeter of a square is 4 times the side length.

4 (x+3) = 32 is the equation we can make out with the given information.

Solve for x:

Distribute the 4 to the terms inside the parenthesis;  4x + 12 = 32

Subtract 12 from both sides;  4x = 20

Divide both sides by 4;  x = 5

By isolating x, we get 5 as the value of x.
