Good luck on your assignment...

Answer 2

10x-2

Explanation:

We know the length is 3x-1. There are two lengths in a rectangle. Therefore, we multiply 3x-1 by 2 to get 6x-2. That is the sum of the two lengths.

Now for the width. Just as with the length there are two widths in a rectangle. After multiplying 2x by 2, we get 4x. That is the sum of the two widths.

To get the perimeter, we need to add both the lengths and both the widths together. Using what we did before, we add 4x + 6x - 2 to get 10x - 2 Hope this helps :)
