Question 294054: Express in symbolic form simple relationships arising from geometry.
The width of a rectangle is w. The length is 6 times greater than 4 x w. Show equation for A= ?

Let w = width
Let 4w + 6 = length
We can make two equations for A.
(1) The perimeter A = 2(w) + 2(4w + 6)
(2) The area A = (2w)(4w + 6)
