The perimeter of rectangle is 17.2x + 6.4 feet
Solution:
Given that width of rectangle is 7.1x - 3.2 feet
Length of rectangle = 1.5x + 6.4 feet
To find: perimeter of rectangle
The formula for perimeter of rectangle is given as:
perimeter = 2(length + width)
Substituting the given values of length and width, we get
[tex]perimeter = 2(1.5x + 6.4 + 7.1x - 3.2)[/tex]
Combine the like terms , we get
[tex]perimeter = 2(1.5x + 7.1x + 6.4 - 3.2)\\\\perimeter = 2(8.6x + 3.2)\\\\perimeter = 17.2x + 6.4[/tex]
Thus the perimeter of rectangle is 17.2x + 6.4 feet
