Using the perimeter formula of a rectangle, P = 21+2w, find the perimeter of the rectangle giver the length is 42 feet and the width is 26 feet
I

-21

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l+2w. which means twice the length and twice the width added to together.

if you mean this:

x=21+2x

minus x on both sides

0=21-x

add 21 on both sides

21=-x

x=-21

than you subsitute

2×-21=-42

-42+21= -21

The perimeter is than -21
