first rectangle:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "L = 2x-3
\n" ); document.write( "W = 4x-5
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2L + 2W = (4x-6) + (8x-10) = 4x-6+8x-10 = (12x-16)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "second rectangle:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "L = x-1
\n" ); document.write( "W = 3x+2
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2L + 2W = (2x-2) + (6x+4) = 2x-2+6x+4 = (8x+2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "difference is:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(12x-16) - (8x+2) = 12x-16-8x-2 = 4x-18\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "that should be your answer.\r
