Question 349663: 5. The measure of the length of a field is 2x + 3 ft and the measure of the width of a field is x + 10 ft. Write an expression for its perimeter. Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi,
*Note: the Perimeter is the distance around the field:
can be written as P = 2*l +2*w
.
P = 2*(2x+3) + 2*(x+10)
.
Simplifying
P = 4x + 6 + 2x + 20
P = 6x +26
