The length of a side of square is given as 2x + 3. Which expression represents the perimeter of the square?

Question

Options

2x + 16
6x + 9
8x + 3
8x + 12

MCQ

Solution

8x + 12

Explanation:

We know that, perimeter of the square = 4 × side

From the question it is given that, side length of the top of square table is 2x + 3

Then, perimeter = 4 × (2x + 3)

= (4 × 2x) + (4 × 3)

= 8x + 12
