Answer:
62 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expressions for width (3x + 1) and length (5x - 2) as well as the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle: 2(5x - 2) + 2(3x +10), we can first solve for the simplified expression of 'x' and then substitute the given value of x = 4cm to find the total distance:
Distribute: 2(5x - 2) + 2(3x +1) = 10x - 4 + 6x + 2
Combine like terms: 16x - 2
Plug in '4' for 'x': 16(4) - 2 = 64 -2 = 62 cm
-588298 divided by 239 equals 2461.49791
