Hello, I think I can help you with this
the area of a rectangle is given by:
Step 1
According to the question data,the length is two inches longer than its width.which means that you can take the width and add 2 inches to obtain the length, in mathematical terms
(equation 2)Width + 2 inches = length
Step 2
Now, put equation 2 into equation 1
Step 3
replace and solve for w
Let
A=35
so, the width is 5 inches,
replacing this value in equation 2
Width + 2 inches = length
5 in +2 in =length
7 in = length
so , the length is 7 inches
Have a good day.
