Question

A triangle has side lengths of (8.5q+1.6r)(8.5q+1.6r) centimeters, (3.5q-4.1s)(3.5q−4.1s) centimeters, and (4.4s+5.8r)(4.4s+5.8r) centimeters. Which expression represents the perimeter, in centimeters, of the triangle?

Answer 1

7.4r+0.3s+12q

Explanation:

I am in 8th grade and we do these problems for honors algebra and if you add (8.5q+1.6r)+(3.5q-4.1s)+(4.4s+5.8r) you will get the answer above
