Answer:
Option c is correct.
62 centimeters distance Zohar needs to cut with scissors.
Step-by-step explanation:
As per the statement:
Length of a rectangle = 5x -2 and width of a rectangle = 3x + 1.
It is also given that the perimeter of the rectangle is, 2(5x-2) +2(3x+1). .....[1]
The perimeter of a rectangle is the total length around the outside.
To find the total distance Zohar needs to cut with scissors.
Substitute the value of x = 4 cm in [1] we get;
Perimeter of the rectangle =[tex]2(5(4)-2) +2(3(4)+1) = 2(20-2)+2(12+1) = 2 \cdot 18 + 2 \cdot 13 = 36 + 26 = 62[/tex] cm
Therefore, the total distance Zohar needs to cut with scissors is, 62 centimeters
