Answer:

P = (17.2x+16.4)

Explanation:

Given that,

Length, l = 8.6x+3

Width, b = 5.2

We need to find the expression for the perimeter of the rectangle. The formula for the perimeter of the rectangle is given by :


P=2(l+b)

Putting values of l and b in the above formula


P=2(8.6x+3+5.2)\\\\=2(8.6x+8.2)\\\\=2(8.6x)+2(8.2)\\\\=17.2x+16.4

So, the required perimeter of the rectangle is
17.2x+16.4.
