Question

The length of a rectangular window is 5 feet more than its width, w. The area of the
window is 36 square feet. Which equation could be used to find the dimensions of the
window?
A. w+5w = 36
B. 5w2 +w=36
C. w2+5 = 36
D. W2 + 5w=36
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation could be used to find the dimensions of the  window would be:  $w^{2} + 5w = 36$

Step-by-step explanation:

as

• The length of a rectangular window is 5 feet more than its width, w.

and

• The area of the  window is 36 square feet.

So it means

$l = w + 5$

$A = lw$

$36 = (w + 5)w$

$w^{2} + 5w = 36$

Therefore, the equation could be used to find the dimensions of the  window would be:  $w^{2} + 5w = 36$
