Question

The length of a rectangle is 1m more than twice its width, and the area of the rectangle is 28m^2 . Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answer 1

so the Area of a rectangle is Length x Width

so the Length is whatever the Width is +1
Width = w
Length = w+1

thus the Area of Length x Width => \(\bf w \times (w+1) = 28\)
solve for "w" to get the Width
to get the Length, just add 1 to that

Answer 2

hh, darn I hate that, I just notice futher material

Answer 3

o the Area of a rectangle is Length x Width

so the Length is whatever the Width TWICE that + 1
Width = w
Length = 2w+1

thus the Area of Length x Width => \(\bf w×(2w+1)=28\)
solve for "w" to get the Width
to get the Length, just add 1 to that
