Question

Determine the perimeter of the figure.

Answer 1

Answer: 2x + 6y + 22 units

Explanation:

The perimeter of a figure is the total length of all the sides of a figure.

Therefore, the perimeter can be found by adding up all the lengths of the figure.

Suppose that P is the perimeter of this figure, then

`P = x+4+x+4+3y+7+7+3y\\`

Combining like terms, we get

`P = 2x + 6y + 22`

Since we do not have any information on what the variables are, this is the perimeter of the figure.
