Q. A triangle has side lengths of (9.1g3.1) (9.1 g-3.1) centimeters, (1.4g+4.2) (1.4 g+4.2) centimeters, and (1.9h+4.4) (1.9 h+4.4) centimeters. Which expression represents the perimeter, in centimeters, of the triangle?\newline6.3h+10.5g+1.1 6.3 h+10.5 g+1.1 \newline5.6+6.3h+6g 5.6+6.3 h+6 g \newline10.5g+1.9h+5.5 10.5 g+1.9 h+5.5 \newline11.6g+6.3h 11.6 g+6.3 h
  1. Identify Given Side Lengths: Identify the given side lengths of the triangle.\newlineSide 11: (9.1g3.1)(9.1 g - 3.1) cm\newlineSide 22: (1.4g+4.2)(1.4 g + 4.2) cm\newlineSide 33: (1.9h+4.4)(1.9 h + 4.4) cm\newlineThe perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides.
  2. Calculate Perimeter: Add the expressions for each side length to find the perimeter.\newlinePerimeter = (9.1g3.1)+(1.4g+4.2)+(1.9h+4.4)(9.1 g - 3.1) + (1.4 g + 4.2) + (1.9 h + 4.4)\newlineCombine like terms to simplify the expression.
  3. Combine Terms and Simplify: Combine the terms with gg.(9.1g+1.4g)=10.5g(9.1 g + 1.4 g) = 10.5 g Combine the constant terms (3.1+4.2+4.4)(-3.1 + 4.2 + 4.4).(3.1+4.2+4.4)=5.5(-3.1 + 4.2 + 4.4) = 5.5 Combine the terms with hh.(1.9h)=1.9h(1.9 h) = 1.9 h Now, add the simplified terms together. Perimeter = 10.5g+1.9h+5.510.5 g + 1.9 h + 5.5
