    There are numerous important information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer can be easily determined. From the information's given, we get the coordinates as (-3, - 2) and (4, 1). From these co ordinates, we can say that

    Height of the rectangle is 3 feet

    Length of the rectangle is 7 feet

    Then

    Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (length + Height)

    = 2 (7 + 3)

    = 2 * 10

    = 20 feet

    From the above deduction, we can conclude that the correct option is option "B".
