Question 515424: A=lw
if the length is 18x-12 and the width is 6 what is the area

L = 18x -12
.
W = 6
.
A = L*W
.
A = (18x-12) *6
.
A = 108x -72
.
But unless you know x, you cannot determine what the area is.
.
Let A = y, this makes the equation:
.
y = 108x -72
.

.
The area will be any point along the line, provided x > 2/3.
