Answer:
20a - 2b - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides of the triangle, that is
perimeter = 9a - 4 + 7a + 3 + 4a - 2b ← collect like terms
= (9a + 7a + 4a) - 2b + (- 4 + 3)
= 20a - 2b - 1
The picture is a bit blurry but the perimeter of a shape is the lengths added.
(4a - 2b) + (7a + 3) + (9a - 4) = perimeter, I added the sides together
Combine like terms to get:
4a + 7a + 9a = 20a
-2b is left along becuase there are no other like terms
3 - 4 = -1
The perimeter is 20a - 2b - 1

I can help u if u do need stell
It would be 79.4, if you follow complete it in the correct order. (mathematically)
let the number be x.
a number decreased means
x-
and the sum of the number and 4 is
x+4
to put the expression together, we get. put them in parentheses
x - ( x+4 )
= x - x -4
= - 4
