The length of a rectangle is 5/2 units greater than twice its width. if its width is w, which expression gives the perimeter of the rectangle in terms of w?

perimeter = 6w + 5 units

Explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle can be calculated as follows:
Perimeter = 2(width + length)

We are given that:
width = w units
length is 5/2 units greater than twice the width. This means that:
length = 2w + 5/2

Now, substitute in the above equation to get the expression for the perimeter as follows:
Perimeter = 2(width + length)
Perimeter = 2(w + 2w + 5/2)
Perimeter = 2(3w + 5/2)
Perimeter = 2(3w) + 2(5/2)
Perimeter = 6w + 5

Hope this helps :)
