Answer:

2(4p+5)

8p+10

Explanation:

to understand this

you need to know about:

  • algebra
  • creating algebraic expression
  • PEMDAS

tips and formulas:

  • parameter of rectangle:2(l+w)

let's solve:

let width be p

according to the first condition

The length is 5 more than 3 times the width

therefore

the length is

3×p+5

3p+5

Parameter of a rectangle

=2(l+w)

=2(3p+5+p)

=2(4p+5) {combine like terms}

=8p+10{distribute 2}

Answer:

  • A and C

Explanation:

  • Width = p
  • Length = 3p + 5

Perimeter:

  • 2(w + l) =
  • 2(p + 3p + 5) =
  • 2(4p + 5) =
  • 8p + 10

Correct options are A and C
