Question

Write an expression that represents the perimeter of the triangle.

Answer 1

(3m - 2) + (2m + 7) + (5m - 3)

Explanation:

Perimeter is found by combining all side measurements together to find the total measurement. In this case, combine the sides:

(3m - 2) + (2m + 7) + (5m - 3) is your answer.

If you need a simplified expression, simply combine all the like terms together. Like terms are terms with the same as well as same amount of variables:

(3m + 2m + 5m) + (7 - 2 - 3)

(10m) + (2)

10m + 2 is your answer.
