Question

Write two equivalent expressions to represent the perimeter of this rectangle 5 x-2

Answer 1

One equivalent expression would be 6*-3.
6+6=12
-3+-3=-6
12-6=6
Another equivalent expression would be 7*-4.
7+7=14
-4+-4=-8
14-8=6

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

1. P = 2*width + 2*length = 6

2. P = 2*(width + length) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

One expression for the perimeter of any rectangle would be:

In our case the width = 5 and the length = -2.

1. P = 2*width + 2*length = 2*5 + 2*(-2) = 10 - 4 = 6

An other expression for the perimeter of any rectangle would be:

2. P = 2*(width + length) = 2*(5 + (-2)) = 2*(3) = 6

I hope it helps you!
