Answer :

Answer:

P = 44 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is the sum of the 4 sides.

In a rectangle

opposite sides are congruent (equal ), then

4x - 3 = 3x + 2 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 5

substitute x = 5 into the expression for P

P = 3x + 2 + x + 4x - 3 + x = 9x - 1 , then

P = 9(5) - 1 = 45 - 1 = 44 units
