Answer:
4(x-1)units
Step-by-step explanation:
In a given rectangle, the length of the rectangle is the shorter side while its breadth is the longer side.
Since we have 2 lengths and 2 breadths in a rectangle, the perimeter of the rectangle will be 2L+2x where
L is the length(shorter side) and x is the breadth (longer side).
According to the question, the shorter side(L) is 2 units less than the longer side(x). Mathematically,
L = x-2
Substituting L = x-2 into the formula of perimeter of a rectangle we have,
P = 2(x-2) + 2x
P = 2x-4+2x
P = 4x-4
P = 4(x-1)
The perimeter of the rectangle will be 4(x-1)units
Interesting problem.
First - let's figure cost of each uniform at purchase.
3,000/40 = $75 each
When some uniforms were returned at $40 - there was a difference of $35 in what they paid and what they rec'd in return. ($75 - 35 = $40)
