Answer:

The answer is H.

Explanation:

By adding the two longer sides, you get 6x+4. if you combine the like terms of the shorter sides and the longer sides, you get the equation 6x+4+2x. 6x+4+2x= 8x+4.

The is Perimeter = 8x+4Therefore, the correct option is H. 8x+4

To find the perimeter of the garden, you add up the lengths of all four sides.

The perimeter (P) is given by the formula:

P=2 (length+width)

In this case, the length is 3x+2 and the width is x.

Substitute these values into the formula:

P=2((3x+2)+x)

Now, simplify the expression inside the parentheses:

P=2(4x+2)

Distribute the 2:

P=8x+4

So, the correct answer is:

Perimeter=8x+4

Therefore, the correct option is H. 8x+4
