Answer:
2x^2 + 12x
Explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a geometric figure.
So x^2 + 6x - 3 + 5x + 3 + x^2 - x
Add like terms:
2x^2 + 12x
The reason I said 2x^2 + 12x here is that this is likely a misprint, and you'll have to ask your teacher about this. Since the 3s (3 and -3) cancel each other out, but there are only 10 x's, your true answer is 2x^2 + 10x.
However, it is more likely that the misprint concerns the x^2 - x, meaning it was meant to be x^2 + x, which would give you answer A. The idea that the problem is just missing a random 9 somewhere is much more farfetched.
I would select answer A.
This is a complicated and incorrectly formatted question. Hope this helps!
