Answer:
Total amount of fencing needed as an algebraic expression in terms of x is: <em>10x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>3</em> .
Step-by-step explanation:
As it is given that each rectangle has the same dimensions, the dimensions of each rectangle must be: x units by 2x + 1 units.
Based on this, we can calculate the total amount of fencing needed.
Let width of each rectangle = x
Let length of each rectangle = 2x + 1
There are 4 widths and 3 lengths in total of fencing.
Therefore:
= 4 ( x ) + 3 ( 2x + 1 )
Expand:
= 4x + 6x + 3
Group like-terms:
= 10x + 3
this makes no sense so maybe try something better
