hey mate!!
as sides of isosceles triangle ate equal
so, 3x-1=2x-2
3x-2x=-2+1
x=-1
3x-1=3(-1)-1=-3-1=-4
2x-2=2(-1)-2=-2-2=-4
2x=2(-1)=-2
perimeter=sum of all sides
perimeter =-4+(-4)+(-2)=-8-2=-6
hope it helped!

Answer:
x = 3 ; the perimeter of triangle = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
since (3x-1) and (2x+2) are equal sides, then
3x-1=2x+2,
3x-2x=2+1,
x=3,
therefore
all the three sides will be
1st side=3×3-1=8 unit,
2nd side=2×3+2=8 unit,
3rd side=2×3=6 unit,
hence
perimeter of the triangle=8 unit + 8 unit + 6 unit=22 unit
hpe that helped u...plzzz mark me as brainliest and thanx meee tooo...plzzz
