The formula for solving perimeter of a parallelogram is P=2(a+b) where "a" is for the altitude and "b" for the base. From the give figure, we can determine both a and b values as enumerated below,
a=5
b=4
We can solve for P as shown below,
P=2(5+4)
P=18 unit.
Therefore, the perimeter is equal to 18.
I hope this helps, have a great day, and God bless.

Answer:
He can run 20 ft in 15 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
we need to change yards to ft
3ft = 1yd
100 yds * 3ft/1yd = 300 ft
distance = rate * time
300 ft = rate * 15 seconds
divide by 15 seconds on both sides
300 ft/15 seconds = rate
20 ft/sec
He can run 20 ft in 15 seconds

I do believe it is the second one
The first step to solving a story problem is identifying variables. For this problem, I will identify the variables as:
D = Drew's age
J = Jimmy's age
Once the variables are identified, we need to find as many equations as we have variables. Since we have two variables, we will have to write two equations.
Since Drew is 3 years younger than Jimmy: D + 3 = J
Since the sum of the brothers' ages is 21: D + J = 21
Once I have two equations is two variables, I can solve the system using either substitution method or elimination method. For this problem, I will use substitution method.
D + J = 21 Equation 2
D + (D + 3) = 21 Substitution of value of J from equation 1 into equation 2
D + D + 3 = 21 Associative property of addition
2D + 3 = 21 Simplify
2D + 3 - 3 = 21 - 3 Subtract 3 from each side
2D = 18 Simplify each side
2D/2 = 18/2 Divide each side by 2
D = 9 Simplify each side
Now that we have D, we can substitute it into equation 1 to get the value of J
D + 3 = J Equation 1
9 + 3 = J Substitution
12 = J Simplify
