The perimeter of a rectangle can be expressed as
2 times its length plus 2 times its width
So perimeter of the given rectangle would be

to simplify first remove the parentheses by multiplying the 2 across 3x-4
and the multiplying the other 2 across 7x+10

next combine like terms 6x + 14x and -8+20

thats it.
