Question

The construction blueprints display the plans to build for the student parking lot. The outline represents the proposed shape of the parking lot. Find the perimeter of the proposed parking lot

Answer 1

8x +20

Explanation:

You want the perimeter of the L-shaped parking lot shown.

Perimeter

The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the sides.

The sum of the vertical edges in the drawing is 2(2x -5).

The sum of the horizontal edges in the drawing is 2(2x +15).

The sum of all of the edges in the drawing is ...

P = 2(2x -5) +2(2x +15) = 4x -10 +4x +30

P = 8x +20

The perimeter of the parking lot is 8x+20.
