Add up the lengths of the several sides of the polygon.
Examples: The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of the 3 sides.
The perimeter of a hexagon is the sum of the lengths of the 6 sides.
And so on.
I highly recommend drawing any polygon whose perimeter you wish to calculate.
• Increased by 3
n+3
• Twice the number
2(n+3)
• Three times the number
3n
• Final result
2(n+3)-3n
-1(5x+1)
-5x-1
the (-) in front is just a short way to put (-1)
Answer:
Ms. Gregg could buy 4 apples and 6 bananas
Step-by-step explanation:
You can split the money and try to get even on each fruit by, getting 4 apples which would be 8 dollars on 4 apples then the extra money would be left over for the bananas which would be six dollars and since the bananas are only 1 dollar you can buy 6 with the leftover money.
