The poerimeter of a rectangle is 2L+2W.
Thus 2(3x-4)+2(7x+10)=perimeter
6x-8+14x+20=perimeter
20x+12=perimeter
-----------------------------
20X=PERIMETER-12
X=(PERIMETER-12)/20
-----------------------------
4(5x+3)=perimeter
-----------------------------
THE ONLY MISSING ELEMENT IS EITHER THE PERIMETER VALUE OF THE X VALUE.
