You can put this solution on YOUR website! the length of a rectangle is 5 feet less than twice the width. let w represent the width of the rectangle. find a polynomial function, p(w), that represents the perimeter.
-----------------------------------
length = 2w-5
width = w
----------------------
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
Perimeter = 2(2w-5+w)
Perimeter = 2(3w-5)
Perimeter = 6w-10
