A rectangle has sides that measure 2 x + 11 units long and 10 x + 1 units long. What is the expression that represents the perimeter of the rectangle?

(24x + 24) units

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a shape that has four sides in which all angles are equal and opposite sides are equal and parallel to each other. The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of all its sides. Since opposite sides are equal, the perimeter is given as:

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Since the sides of the rectangle are 2 x + 11 units long and 10 x + 1 units long. Hence:

Perimeter = 2(2x + 11 + 10x + 1)

Perimeter = 2(2x + 10x + 11 + 1) = 2(12x + 12)

Perimeter = (24x + 24) units

after simplifying it i got: -36.25 as my answer. hope that !
