Answer:

2x - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = sum of sides

First let's simplify each side

We can simplify each side by using distributive property. Distributive property is where you multiply the number on the outside of the parenthesis by the numbers on the inside of the parenthesis.

2(x + 5)

Distribute by multiplying x and 5 by 2

2 * x = 2x and 2 * 5 = 10

2x + 10

1/2(4x + 8)

Distribute by multiplying 4x and 8 by 1/2

1/2 * 4x = 2x and 1/2 * 8 = 4

2x + 4

-3(2x + 11)

Distribute by multiplying 2x and 11 by -3

-3 * 2x = -6x

-3 * -33

-6x - 33

Finally add all the simplified expressions ( remember that they represent the side lengths of the triangle )

2x + 10 + 2x + 4 - 6x - 33

Combine like terms

2x + 2x - 6x = -2x

10 + 4 - 33 = -19

Perimeter: -2x - 19

Answer:

Perimeter = - 2x - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter \: of \: a \: triangle \\ = Sum \: of \: the \: length \: of \: all \: sides \\ = [2(x+5)]+[-3(2x+11)]+[ \frac{1}{2} (4x+8)] \\  = [(2 \times x)+(2 \times 5)]+[(-3 \times 2x)+( - 3 \times 11)]+[ (\frac{1}{2} \times 4x)  + ( \frac{1}{2}  \times 8)] \\  = (2x + 10) + ( - 6x - 33) + (2x + 4) \\  = 2x + 10  - 6x - 33 + 2x + 4 \\  = 2x - 6x + 2x + 10 - 33 + 4 \\  =  - 2x - 19

So, the perimeter is - 2x - 19.

A pillow that usually costs $20 is marked down 45%. Table Use the table to find the new price of the pillow. $9 $11 $29 $33
sattari [20]
It would now cost $11. 45% of 20 is 9, therefore, you would subtract 9 from 20 (since it is getting marked down).
