Question

Answer 1

Let's say the length of the painting is given as L. And we are being told that the width of the painting is 5 inches shorter than its length. 

Given an algebraic expression of length as L, the algebraic expression for width will be w= L - 5.

Hope this helps. Feel free to reach out for any questions, Jessie.
