Question 990589: Write an algebraic expression for the verbal description.
The perimeter of a rectangle with a width x and a length that is twice the width.
Answer by Timnewman(323) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
if width w=x----(1)
and lenght L=2x----(2)
Then
perimeter(P)=2(L+w)---(3)
put equ 1 and 2 in 3
Therefore,
p=2(x+2x)
p=2(3x)
p=6x
