The distance around an object is called the perimeter. To get the perimeter, you add up the sides. So, 2/18 + 3/12 + 2/12 = your answer.
The restrictions for the equation is that the denominator can not be zero. So the restrictions for x would be what values make the denominator zero.
7x^2 + 6x = 0
factor
x(7x + 6) = 0
multiply any number by 0 and you get 0. So either x = 0 or 7x+6 = 0
since there's a x in the numerator x/x = 1 so this will not be a restriction. Then the only restriction is:
7x+6 = 0
7x = -6
x = -6/7
Last choice cuz look at the graph
