Answer:

None of the answers are right

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a hexagon has 6 sides, and perimeter is the length of all the sides summed up, we can multiply 6 by 2x+y to find the perimeter.

6(2x+y)

Distribute the 6 to each term in the parentheses:

6(2x)+6(y)

12x+6y is the perimeter. None of the answers are right.
