Zohar is using scissors to cut a rectangle with a length of 5x – 2 and a width of 3x + 1 out of a larger piece of paper. the perimeter of the rectangle is 2(5x – 2) + 2(3x + 1). if x = 4 centimeters, what is the total distance zohar needs to cut with the scissors?

If x=4, replace in the given equation of perimeter to get the total distance
x=4, Perimeter = 2(5×4-2) + 2(5×4+1)
= 2(18) + 2(21)
= 36 + 42
= 78 cm

Hope it helped!

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
