---------------------)Generating Equivalent Expressions

A rectangle has a length of 2(x + y) and a width of 3(x - y). Write an expression for the perimeter of that rectangle. Simplify the expression.

Answer 1

I think you should write the equation to find perimeter such as P = 2(L + W). So the expression is 2[2(x+y) + 3(x - y)]
Simplified as 2[(2x + 2y + 3x - 3y)]
2(5x - 1y) combined like terms
10x - 2y is the expression for the perimeter of the rectangle
