Answer

Option B is correct.

Perimeter of the trapezoid = (7x + 10) units

Step-by-step explanation

The perimeter of any figure is the sum of its exterior sides.

The sides of this trapezoid include,

(2x + 2) units

(3x - 1) units

4 units

(2x + 5) units

So, the perimeter is the sum of the sides

Perimeter = (2x + 2) + (3x - 1) + 4 + (2x + 5)

= 2x + 3x + 2x + 2 - 1 + 4 + 5

= 7x + 10

Hope this Helps!!!
