Question

How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle with length 3c-5 and width 2c?

Answer 1

`p = 10c - 10`

Explanation:

The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle is `p = 2L * 2W` where `p3 is the perimeter,`L`is the length of the rectangle and`W# is the width of the rectangle. Substituting what is known:

`p = 2(3c - 5) + 2(2c)`

Then simplify:

`p = 6c - 10 + 4c`

`p = 10c - 10`
