Learning Log 2-16

Leave A Comment!  Create a shape in your notebook using three different-shaped tiles.  Draw the shape and leave a comment that shows how to write a simplified expression for its perimeter.  Label this entry "Finding Perimeter and Combining Like Terms".

THANK YOU to all that commented.  Remember that finding the perimeter of an object is finding the distance around that object.  In addition, only terms that have similar variables can be combined.  


Example 1:  y + y + y = 3y. 
Example 2:  xy + xy + y^2 + xy + 1 + 1 + 1 + y^2 =  2y^2 + 3xy + 3
