Let L be the length and W be the width. The equations that represents the given conditions are,
 (1)                      L = W + 3
 (2)                    A  = (L - 1) x (W - 1) = 150
                         A = (W + 3 - 1) x (W - 1) = 150
The value of W is 11.8389 in. The width is therefore, 11.8389 in and the length is 14.8389 in.

So we are finding the difference btween 5x-3 and 3x+1.
(5x-3)-(3x+1)

Let's subtract the x's first.
5x-3x=2x
Now the numbers.
-3-1=-4
Now, we need to put 2x and -4 together. 

The expression would be 2x-4.

Inversely proportional : it is relationship between two variables in which when one variable's value is increasing than other one is decreasing.

Situation A : The number of miles Rashid drives increases over a period of 5 hours.

→ in this situation both variable no. of miles and period of time are increasing. so it is not represent a inversely proportional relationship.

in next two situation , two variables are increasing with each other.

so we take last situation ↓

Situation : Robin has $100 to share evenly with his cousins at the fair. As the number of cousins who arrive increases, the amount that each person receives

decreases.

→ in this situation , both variable viz no. of cousins and amount they got is inversely proportional to each other. when no. of cousins are increasing than amount is decreasing. so this last one situation represent the inversely proportional relationship.
