Question

The floor of a rectangular cage has a length 4 feet greater than its width, w. James will increase both
dimensions of the floor by 2 feet. Which equation represents the new area, N, of the floor of the cage?

Answer 1

w represents width

w + 4 represents length

 

w + 2 represents new width

w + 6 represents new length

 

A = (w + 2)(w + 6)

A = w² + 8w + 12

Answer 3

(w+2)*(w+6) = w² + 8w + 12
