Students will simplify two expressions, solve an equation to find x, and substitute their solution to find the perimeter and area of a square. Page 1: A square with side lengths "7(x+5) - 2x - 15" and "2x - 10 + 3(2x - 10) - 2(x - 5)" Page 2: Solve for x and explain your steps. Page 3: Find the perimeter of the square and explain your steps Page 4: Find the area of the square and explain your steps * I used this mini-project to challenge only some of my 8th grade students who mastered solving
