Answer:

6x - 4

Explanation:

Perimeter is equal to double the length plus double the width, and if you use this to find perimeter, you would get that the perimeter = 2(2x-7)+2(x+5), which simplifies to 4x - 14 + 2x + 10, which simplifies to 6x - 4. That means that the rectangle's perimeter is 6x-4.
