Perimeter: 16x + 16

Area: 40x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, the perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a figure, it can be found by adding up all the sides. The area is the space within the figure, in the case of a quadrilateral can be found by multiplying the length by the width. Finally, in a rectangle, the opposite sides are congruent, parallel, and intersect in 90degree (right) angles.

Using this,

1. Find the perimeter

Since opposite sides are congruent, there will be two sides with a measure of ( 8x + 3 ), and two sides with the measure of 5. Hence the sum of all the sides would be

8x + 3 + 8x + 3 + 5 + 5

Add them together,

16x + 16.

The perimeter of the figure is 16x + 16

2. Find the area,

To find the area of a rectangle, multiply the length by the width.;

( 8x + 3 ) * 5

Distribute:

40x + 15

The area of the figure is 40x + 15

so, converting firstly the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then "adding".

to find the perimeter, you add up all the lengths of the sides. in this case you would have to add up 18+22+40+80 which equals 160.
