The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle can be expressed as “two times the width plus two times the length.” Suppose a rectangle has width s + 2 and length s + 6. An expression that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is 2(s +2) + 2(s+6). Rewrite the given expression so that the variable occurs only once. Show your work. Explain why the rewritten expression is easier to use than the given expression. Please Please
