Answer:
[tex] Perimeter = 3x + 3 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the given triangle in the figure is the sum of all three sides.
The expressions for the 3 sides are given as, [tex] x, (x - 3), (x + 6) [/tex].
Therefore,
[tex] Perimeter = x + (x - 3) + (x + 6) [/tex]
Simplify,
[tex] Perimeter = x + x - 3 + x + 6 [/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex] Perimeter = x + x + x - 3 + 6 [/tex]
[tex] Perimeter = 3x + 3 [/tex]
