Find the perimeter of this triangle.

I assume the lengths of the sides are are given below

2x
4x+15
5x-9

Step 1. Perimeter P means adding the all three sides of the triangel.

Step 2. Then P=2x+4x+15+5x-9=(2+4+5)x+(15-9)=11x+6

Step 3. ANSWER: The equation for the perimeter P in this example is P=11x+6.

I hope the above steps were helpful.
