Respuesta :

since it's perimeter, you're adding. the expression would be x + 2 4/5

The expression to represent the perimeter of the rug is [tex]\rm Perimeter = \dfrac{10x+28}{5}[/tex].

Given that

A hand weaved rectangular rug measures x ft long and 2 4/5 ft wide.

We have to determine

An expression to represent the perimeter of the rug.

According to the question

The perimeter of the rug is given by two times of length and width.

[tex]\rm Perimeter = 2( Length + Width)[/tex]

The length of the rug is x feet.

And the width of the rug is 2 4/5 feet.

Therefore,

The expression to represent the perimeter of the rug is,

[tex]\rm Perimeter = 2( Length + Width)\\\\\rm Perimeter = 2( x+ 2\dfrac{4}{5})\\\\Perimeter = 2 (x + \dfrac{2 \times 5+4}{5})\\\\Perimeter = 2(x+\dfrac{10+4}{5})\\\\Perimeter = 2(x+\dfrac{14}{5})\\\\Perimeter= 2(\dfrac{5x+14}{5})\\\\Perimeter = \dfrac{10x+28}{5}[/tex]

Hence, the expression to represent the perimeter of the rug is [tex]\rm Perimeter = \dfrac{10x+28}{5}[/tex].
