Write the perimeter of the figure as a polynomial. Simplify.

A trapezoid is shown. The top side is labeled 2 x. The right side is labeled 4 x plus 1. The bottom side is labeled 3 x. The left side is labeled 4 x plus 1.

13x + 2
13 x + 2

13x + 1
13 x + 1

9x + 1
9 x + 1

9x + 2

1 answer

The perimeter of the figure is: (2x) + (4x + 1) + (3x) + (4x + 1) = 2x + 4x + 1 + 3x + 4x + 1 = 13x + 2

So, the correct option is: 13x + 2.
