Answer: 4x+8

Explanation:

Okay since the area for the block is X, two numbers multiplied together is X.

Since the big block has an area of X^2, then this shows the sides to be X.

This gives the sides of the block with area X to be 1 and X.

Now just add up every side like this : 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + x + x + x + x to get 4x+8
