Answer:

6x+2

Explanation:

The perimeter is all of the sides added together.

We know that in a rectangle, sides that are parallel to each other are the same.

So, to find the expression that represents the perimeter, you have to multiply 2x+1 by 2 and x by 2 and add both of those together.

(2*(2x+1))+(2*(x))

(4x+2)+(2x)

4x+2+2x

6x+2
