The length of a rectangle is 5 in. more than twice its width.?
How do I find the width of the rectangle.
The length = (2 x width) + 5 inches. Do you have any other information about the rectangle such as the area or the perimeter. I don't think there is enough information here to determine an actual length but others may prove me wrong.
2(length-5)
To find the width of the rectangle, we can set up an equation based on the given information. Let's represent the width of the rectangle as 'w'.
According to the problem, the length of the rectangle is 5 inches more than twice its width. So, we can express the length as (2w + 5) inches.
Therefore, our equation is:
Length = (2w + 5) inches
If you have any other information, like the area or the perimeter, we can solve for the width using that information. Otherwise, with just the given information, we can't determine the specific value of the width.
