Width: 3x(-2y)
Write a simplified expression for the perimeter of the rectangle.
y
ху

Answer 1

Answer:

8 - 42x - 56y - 12xy

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = 4 - 7(3x + 4y)

= 4 - 21x - 28y

Width = 3x(-2y)

= -6xy

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width)

= 2{(4 - 21x - 28y) + ( -6xy)}

= 2(4 - 21x - 28y - 6xy)

= 8 - 42x - 56y - 12xy

Perimeter of the rectangle = 8 - 42x - 56y - 12xy
