We know that 5x-3x =2x
So x(5x-3x)=x×2x
=(2x)^2
=4x^2
Which is given as 18.
X^2=18÷4
=4.5
So x=root over 4.5
Which is approximately 2.25
<span>Length = l</span>
<span>
Width = w</span>
<span>
Perimeter = p = 100
</span>
<span>Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+w)</span>
<span>
100 = 2 (4w + w)</span>
<span>
100 = 2(5w)</span>
<span>
100 = 10w</span>
<span>
100/10 = w</span>
<span>
10 = w</span>
<span>
w = 10
Area of rectangle = length * width</span>
<span>
a = l*w</span>
<span>
a = 4w*w</span>
<span>
a = 4w^2............(1)</span>
<span>
Put the value of w in (1)</span>
<span>
a = 4(10)^2</span>
<span>
a= 4(100)</span>
<span>
a = 400 yd^2</span>
I think the expression that you need is, 4-(2x). Hope it helps!
