The perimeter is the sum of all segments that make up a closed figure. You need to know what type of figure you are talking about - for example, a rectangle, triangle, etc. You also need to have enough information to calculate the length of each side. Once you have those, you can add them.

What is 2x-1 plus 2x-1 plus 2x-1 plus 2x-1?
8x-4
Why does the perimeter of a square double when you double the sides of a square?
The perimeter is the sum of the sides. So if a square has a side of length 1, its perimeter is 1+1+1=1 = 4 If a square has a side doubled to length 2, its perimeter is 2+2+2+2 = 8, or double what it was before. Mathematically, if each side is length x it perimeter is x + x + x = X = 4x If each side is length 2x, its perimeter is 2x +2x+2x+2x = 8x
If the sides of a triangle are represented by 2x x plus 5 and 3x-6 what would be the perimeter of the triangle in terms of x?
Perimeter is the sum of side lengths. P = 2x + (x+5) + (3x-6) = 6x - 1.
What is the perimeter of the of the square with side 2x and x plus 25?
I'm assuming that you meant the perimeter of a rectangle, not a square...The equation for the perimeter would be 2x + 2x + x + 25 + x + 25.You combine the like terms, and get 6x + 50.So the answer is 6x + 50.
What is the perimeter of a triangle 7x plus 9w 2x plus 8y 2y plus 5w?
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of the three sides.If the three expressions in the question are in fact the lengths of thethree sides, then the perimeter is their sum.(7x + 9w) + (2x + 8y) + (2y + 5w) = 9x + 10y + 14w
What is a variable expression for the perimeter of the square with side 2x plus 1?
Perimeter of a square = 4 * sideP = 4 * (2x +1)P = 8x + 4

Perimeter is the sum of side lengths. P = 2x + (x+5) + (3x-6) = 6x - 1.
Factor 2x squared plus 2x plus xy plus y?

If Perimeter of a rectangle that has a width of x inches and a length of x plus 16 inches is 2x plus 2x plus 16 inches simplify the expression for the perimeter Find the perimeter if x equals 14?
If the rectangle has a width of x inches, and a length of x + 16 inches, then its perimeter equals to 2x + 2x + 32 or 4x + 32. If x = 14, then x + 16 = 30. So the perimeter of rectangle becomes 2(14) + 2(30) = 28 + 60 = 88 inches.
Factor completely 4x2 plus 4x plus 1?
(2x + 1)(2x + 1) or (2x + 1)2
What is the perimeter of the of the square with side 2x and x plus 25?
I'm assuming that you meant the perimeter of a rectangle, not a square...The equation for the perimeter would be 2x + 2x + x + 25 + x + 25.You combine the like terms, and get 6x + 50.So the answer is 6x + 50.

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of the three sides.If the three expressions in the question are in fact the lengths of thethree sides, then the perimeter is their sum.(7x + 9w) + (2x + 8y) + (2y + 5w) = 9x + 10y + 14w
2x plus 2x plus 2x equals 6?
x=1
If one side of an equilateral hexagon has length 2x plus 1 what is the permiter?
A haxagon has 6 sides. An equilateral hexagon has 6 equal sides. So the perimeter is 6*(2x+1) = 12x+6
-2x plus 1 equals 2x plus 1?
x = 0
