Question 1176559: The width of a rectangle measures (3n+8p)(3n+8p) centimeters, and its length measures (3n-4p)(3n−4p) centimeters. Which expression represents the perimeter, in centimeters, of the rectangle?
Hi
P = 2W + 2L
P = 2(3n+8p)(3n+8p) + 2(3n-4p)(3n−4p)
P = 2[9n^2 + 48p + 64p^2 + 9n^2 - 24p + 16p^2]
P = 2[18n^2 + 24p + 80p^2]
P = (36n^2 + 48p + 160p^2)cm^2
Wish You the Best in your Studies.
