Do you know what makes a perimeter?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10x − 9 10x − 39 5.5x − 9 5.5x + 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes @radar

OpenStudy (radar):

O.K then sum up the three sides and see what you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its an expression not the sum

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, he's saying that the Perimeter is the sum of all sides.. so you have to add up all the sides: P = (0.3x + 24) + (0.2x - 15) + (5x) Simplify by combining like terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know @greenlegodude57

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, tell me what you get.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

P = (0.3x + 0.2x + 5x) + (24 - 15)
