Answer:
[tex]P = 4x+4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The attached triangle
Required
Determine the perimeter (P)
This is calculated by adding the measure of the three sides.
So, we have:
[tex]P = 2x-3 + x + 5 +x + 2[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]P = 2x +x +x-3 + 5 + 2[/tex]
[tex]P = 4x+4[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]P = 4(x+1)[/tex]
Hence, the perimeter is 4x + 4 or 4(x + 1)
