Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter= all sides added together

so in this case

3x+1 = 2x + 2x + x-1 + x+2 + x-1 + x + 2

now you may be wondering why i put two 2x's, two 2+x, and two x-1  , the far left side is 2x and has 2 lines and so does the bottom side which has 2 lines so theyre congruent ( the same case for the 2+x and x-1 )  so you need to account for all sides.

so lets simplify this huge equation!

3x+1 = 4x + 1x - 1 + 1x + 2 + 1x - 1 + 1x + 2

3x+1 = 8x - 1 + 2 - 1 + 2

3x + 1 = 8x + 2

-3x on both sides

1 = 5x + 2

-2 on each side

-1 = 5x

x = -1/5
