Because the rectangle has four sides double both your 2x and your 3.25x +1

your equation should look like this

2x+2x+3.25x+1+3.25x+1=65

(65 is your perimeter)

combine like terms

10.5x+2=65

subtract 2 from both sides

10.5x=63

Divide both sides by your x (10.5) you are left with

x=6 thus getting your answer
