Answer:

C


Step-by-step explanation:


Perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all the sides.


A triangle has 3 sides, so if we add up all the 3 sides lengths (given as expressions here) of the triangle, we will have the perimeter.

Perimeter = [tex](2x+3)+(8x-4)+(x^2)\\=2x+3+8x-4+x^2[/tex]

Now combining like terms we have:

[tex]2x+3+8x-4+x^2\\=x^2+10x-1[/tex]


Answer choice C is the correct one.
