Question 895312: The perimeter of a rectangle with sides x and three less than x
Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
P = 2L + 2W
L = x
W = x-3
Plug in the values into the equation
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(x) +2(x-3)
Distribute
P = 2x + 2x - 6
Add
P = 4x - 6
.
You need to have at least one concrete value to solve further (P, L, or W)
