Question

An rug has an area of 150 ft^2. The width of the rug is 5 feet less than the length.

Which equation models the area of the rug?



x(x + 5) = 150


x(x - 5) = 150


2x - 5 = 150


x(5 - x) = 150

Answer 1

Let x = length
Let x-5= width
L(w)=Area
x(x-5)=150
aka the second answer:P

Answer 2

I got B

Answer 3

Yup, that's right
