The perimeter of Jake window is 16x - 2 inches
Solution:
Given that height of Jake window is 5x - 3 inches
Also given that width is 3x + 2 inches
To find: perimeter of Jake window
We know that, in general a window is of rectangular shape
The perimeter of rectangle is given as:
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)
Substituting the values we get,
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(5x - 3 + 3x + 2)
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(8x - 1) = 16x - 2
Hence, the perimeter of the window is 16x – 2 inches
