Arectangle has a width w that is 5 units longer than its length l. which equation expresses the rectangle's area, a?

Area

Explanation:

Let the length of rectangle be equal to "x" units

Given, width w that is 5 units longer than its length l

Hence, the equation for width of rectangle in terms of "x" is

Area of the rectangle is given by

where

"l" is the length of the rectangle.

and "w" is the width of the rectangle.

Substituting the value of both length and width in terms of "x" in above equation, we get -
