Please help me. I need to find the total perimeter of two rectangles
4x+5 and 2x+7
3x and 3x + 14
I’m so confused.
I don’t need the answer. Just tell me where to start
Thanks so much
4x+5 and 2x+7
I assume you mean the length is 4x+5 and the width is 2x+7
if a rectangle then the perimeter is twice the length + twice the width
= 8 x+10 + 4 x + 14
= 12 x + 24
Thank you so much. This helped me so very much
To find the total perimeter of two rectangles, you need to calculate the sum of the perimeters of both rectangles.
First, let's start with the formula for calculating the perimeter of a rectangle. The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula: 2 * (length + width).
For the first rectangle with sides 4x+5 and 2x+7, the length would be (4x+5) and the width would be (2x+7).
So, the perimeter of the first rectangle would be: 2 * ((4x+5) + (2x+7)).
For the second rectangle with sides 3x and 3x+14, the length would be 3x and the width would be (3x+14).
So, the perimeter of the second rectangle would be: 2 * (3x + (3x+14)).
Once you have both perimeters, you can find the total perimeter by adding them together.
I hope this helps you get started!
