The perimeter of a shape is the sum of its side lengths.

The expression for the amount left is 180 - 4x

The length of the fencing is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{Length = 4x}[/tex]

The available length is:

[tex]\mathbf{Available = 180}[/tex]

So, the length of fencing left is the difference between the available length and the length of fencing used.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Amount\ Left = 180 - 4x}[/tex]

Hence, the expression for the amount left is 180 - 4x
