I need help with my math homework.

Question

Help me find the solution-

 

Problem #1 - The formula A = LW finds the area of a rectangle by multiplying the length of one side and the width of the adjacent side. Solve the formula for length and width.

 

Problem #2 - Pick the Best equation from question 3 to find the width of a rectangle whose area is 60 square inches and whose length is 5 inches.

Answer 1

Ok. So first you need to solve the formula A = LW for length and width.

L represents the length, W represents the width.

So,

L = A/W

W = A/L

So now, you need to find the width of a retangle whose area (A) is 60 square inches and whose length is 5 inches.

So we can use W = A/L to solve this:

W = 60/5 = 12 inches
