Question

Cesar's mom is buying fencing to go around her rectangular-shaped swimming pool. She challenged him to figure out the perimeter of the pool using an algebraic expression. If the length is (35x+27)feet and the width is (9x -34) feet. What expression did Cesar use to represent the perimeter of the pool? (simplify if possible)

Answer 1

Hey Jesus,

Considering that in order to find the perimeter, you need to add all the sides of the pool, all you need do is add the sides. Because the shape of the pool is rectangular, the perimeter can be expressed using the following formula P=2l+2w.

So your answer will be

2(35x+27) + 2(9x-34)

70x + 54 + 19x - 68

The expression of the perimeter is : 89x -14
