An expression for the length of the rectangle in terms of the width would be: l = 2w - 4
The formula for the area of a rectangle is: Area = length x width
Using trial and error, if the area is 96 m^2, then the length and width are:
l = 12 & w = 8 (length = 12 meters, width = 8 meters)
or
l = 24 & w = 4 (length = 24 meters, width = 4 meters)
The length of a rectangle is four meters less than twice its width.
If the area of the rectangle is 96 m^2, what is the length and the width?
An expression for the length of the rectangle in terms of the width would be__________
The formula for the area of a rectangle is _________
Using trial and error, if the area is 96 m^2, then the length and width are-________
