Question

A plot of land is in the shape of a triangle. If one side is X meters, a second side Is (5x-2) meters and a third side is (7x-4) meters, express the perimeter of the lot as a simplified expression in X.

Answer 1

`P(x)=x+5x-2+7x-4`

`P(x)=13x-6`

Hope this helps !

Answer 2

Perimeter = x + 5x - 2 + 7x - 4

= 13x - 6 meters answer
