Question 6 What is the perimeter of the figure shown below, which is not drawn to scale? help ​

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

the perimeter means to go along all 4 sides and sum up the distance.

so, we have

x + 12 + x + 12 + 2x + 2x

we combine all similar terms (the ones with a variable and the constants without a variable)

x + x + 2x + 2x + 12 + 12 = 6x + 24

why do you think the sum of x + x + 2x + 2x is 4x ?

and 12 + 12 is 28 ?

do you need any further explanation, or is this now clear ?
