Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is calculated by adding all side lengths up.

So, to find the value of x, we can write the following equation:

6x + 3 + 4x + 2x + 1 = 5x + 5x + 3x + 2

  • Add like terms on both sides of the equation.

12x + 4 = 13x + 2

  • Transfer variables to one side and numbers to one side of the equation.

4 - 2 = 13x - 12x

2 = x

To find the perimeter, replace x with 2:

12×2 + 4 = 28
