Question 954027: Express the given quantity in terms of the indicated variable.
The perimeter (in cm) of a rectangle that is 7 cm longer than it is wide; w = width of the rectangle (in cm) Answer by macston(5194) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! P=Perimeter; W=width; L=length=W+7cm
P=2(L+W)=2(W+7+W)=2(2W+7cm)=4W+14cm
The perimeter is 4 times the width plus 14 cm.
