Answer:35in.
Step-by-step explanation:
I reccomend splitting it into sections when given problems like this.
The smaller two rectangles would be 5in * 2in which is 10in then just add them together.
For the bigger one, you'd do 5-2 in order to get the missing inches which will be 3+2 once added 5in*3in is 15in.
Finally, add 15+10+10 (15=The middle rectangle and 10=the sides)
Well it seems if you round you would get 1.81 try it

Answer:
2x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
To expand (using the distributive property) <u>multiply</u> the number outside the bracket i.e. in this case '2', with the <u>values inside the brackets</u>.
So multiply '2' and 'x' and '2' and 5' and add or subtract on basis of whether the second value is positive or negative.
So
2(x + 5)
= (2*x)+(2*5)
=2x+10
<em>extention note:</em> <u>be careful</u> when the symbol within the equation within the brackets is a subtraction because it implies that the second value would instead be a negative number and should be treated as such.
an example
2(x-5)
= (2*x)+(2*-5)
=2x -10
Anyhow, I hope this helped!
