A rectangle’s length is 2 units more than twice its width. Its area is 40 square units. The equation w(2w + 2) = 40 can be used
to find w, the width of the rectangle.
2 answers:
Answer: Value of w is 4 units and the equation is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let width of a rectangle be 'w'.
Let length of a rectangle be '2w+2'.
Since we have given that
Area of rectangle = 40 square units.
As we know the formula for "Area = Length × Breadth" :
So, it becomes,
But dimension can't be negative.
So, w must be 4 units.
Hence, Value of w is 4 units and the equation is correct.

You can work this out in the straight-forward way, or you can recognize that (6-i) is a common factor. In the latter case, you have ...
... = (6-i)(5 + 3-i)
... = (6 -i)(8 -i)
This product of binomials is found in the usual way. Each term of one factor is multiplied by each term of the other factor and the results summed. Of course, i = √-1, so i² = -1.
... = 6·8 -6i -8i +i²
... = 48 -14i -1
... =
