Find the perimeter and area of a rectangle if its length is 8x-2, and its width is 4x.

8x-2= -16(length)
therefore perimeter is when you add all the sides together so therefore
perimeter = -16+-16+4+4
= -32 + 8
= -24
area is L (length) times W (width)
area = LxW
-16 x 4
= -64
answer :-)

The perimeter of a rectangle (or of any polygon) is the sum of the lengths of the sides.

This is the perimeter.
The area of a rectangle is length (L) times width (W):

This is the area.
