Question 7856: I have to find the perimeter of a rectangle it says use P=2w=2L
my dimensions are in inches and they are 2x for W and 2x+6 for L How do I solve this problem? Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Perimeter of a rectangle is: P = 2(L + W)
Here: L = 2x+6 and W = 2x. Substitute these into the above formula.
and this is as far as you can go until you know the value of x.
