I'm confused. Can someone help me out with this problem step-by-step using the P = 2L + 2W formula?

We can't use P = 2L + 2W because  the sides have different lengths.

P = a + b + c + d

a = x

b = 2x

c = 2x - 2

d = x + 5

P = x + 2x + (2x - 2) + (x + 5)

P = x + 2x + 2x - 2 + x + 5

P = 6x + 3

if x = 4:

P = 6 · 4 + 3

P = 24 + 3

P = 27

answer: the answer is (b) amie should have multiplied

step-by-step explanation: given a sphere and a cylinder with same radius and height.

let, 'r' be the radius of the cylinder and sphere and 'h' be the height of the cylinder. according to the question,

r = h.

now, the volume of the sphere will be

and the volume of the cylinder will be

therefore, we have

thus, ammie should have multiplied the volume of the sphere
