A triangle has side lengths of (1.2u+1.8v)(1.2u+1.8v) centimeters, (6.5u+8.7w)(6.5u+8.7w) centimeters, and (5.8w-6.9v)(5.8w−6.9v) centimeters. Which expression represents the perimeter, in centimeters, of the triangle? 13.5uw+3.6vw13.5uw+3.6vw 7.7u+1.8w+7.6v7.7u+1.8w+7.6v -1.1vw+15.2uw+3uv−1.1vw+15.2uw+3uv 14.5w-5.1v+7.7u14.5w−5.1v+7.7u

7.7u - 5.1v + 14.5w

Step-by-step explanation:

Given length:

Side A = (1.2u+1.8v) centimeters,

Side B = (6.5u+8.7w) centimeters

Side C = (5.8w-6.9v) centimeters

Perimeter of a triangle = side A + side B + side C

= (1.2u+1.8v) + (6.5u+8.7w) + (5.8w-6.9v)

= 1.2u + 1.8v + 6.5u + 8.7w + 5.8w - 6.9v

Collect like terms

= 1.2u + 6.5u + 1.8v - 6.9v + 8.7w + 5.8w

= 7.7u - 5.1v + 14.5w

Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle is 7.7u - 5.1v + 14.5w
