Answer:
5x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the rectangle is:
(1)
The area of the rectangle is the product of length (L) and width (W):
where , and the width must be in the form
.
We need to find the values of a and b. If we calculate the product of L and W, we get:
We know that this equation must be equivalent to (1), so we immediately see that:
- the coefficient of the second order term, , must be 35, so
- the zero-order term must be equal to -18, so we have
- We can verify that using a=5 and b=-9, the coefficient of the first-order term corresponds to -53:
So, the width is
W = 5x - 9
