Finding the Perimeter of a Rectangular Garden

Medium Algebra Expressions, Equations, And Inequalities

Samantha has a rectangular garden that has a length of 4x + 5 meters and a width of 2x - 3 meters.

What is the expression for the perimeter of the garden?

Recall that the formula for the perimeter P of a rectangle is given by:

P = 2(Length + Width)

$$P = 2(4x + 5 + 2x - 3)$$

$$P = 2(6x + 2)$$

$$P = 12x + 4$$

$$P = 2(2x + 5 - 3)$$
