Thank you so much. Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1. Start with the formula for the area of a rectangle: where L = the length and W = the width.
But, you are given the length as x so L = x.
And you are given the area as , so , so now you can write: You can rewrite this as: Here, we factored an x.
So, to find W, divide both sides by x.
