Question

A rectangular picture frame has a width of 9 cm and a length of x cm.

Which expression represents the perimeter of the picture frame?



x + 9

2x + 9

2x + 18

2(x+18)

Answer 1

2x+18

Explanation:

Answer 2

We are asked to find for an expression that represents the perimeter of a picture frame which has a shape of a rectangle. The dimensions given are length of size x cm and a width of size 9 cm.

The formula for the Perimeter of a rectangle is given by
P=2L+2W

where L is the length and W is the width of the rectangle.

Hence,
P=2(x)+2(9)
Simplifying this values would give us a result of,
P=2x+18

Therefore, 2x+18 is the expression that represent the perimeter of the picture frame.
