The perimeter of a single parallelogram is adding all 4 sides together
The perimeter of the 2 parallelograms side by side are adding the top and bottom and one side for each one, the middle side of each do not get added, so the formula would be l + l +s + l + l + s which is 10+4 + 10 + 4
Where 10 is the sum of the top and bottom of each parallelogram.
So when adding additional parallelograms, you would multiply 10 by the number of parallelograms ( n) to get 10n, then you would need to add the height of each end, which is 4 each so 4 x 2 - 8.
This makes the formula: D.The equation for the perimeter is p=10n+8.
