Question 1141583
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The length of a rectangle is 5 inches longer than twice the width, and the area is 12 inches squared. Let l represent the length and w represent the width. Which of the following equations ,....?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Let <b>L</b> be length (not "l").
Let w be width.


{{{L=2w+5}}}, and {{{w}}}, the dimensions


{{{Lw=12}}}
{{{(2w+5)w=12}}}
{{{w(2w+5=12)}}}--------OR you could take the L equation and solve for w, and then form the area equation in terms of L, and put into whatever form of equation you want.
