You can put this solution on YOUR website! Its very simple
Perimeter of triangle = sum of its three sides
here three sides of triangle are 2x-5, 3x+1, and 4x+2...apply it in the above fromula and we get
perimeter = (2x-5)+ (3x+1) + (4x+2)
apen brackets and we get
perimeter = 2x - 5 + 3x + 1 + 4x + 2
put like varibles and we get
= 2x + 3x + 4x - 5 + 1 + 2
solving like vairables we get......
= 9x - 5 + 3
= 9x - 2
hope this will help you.
