Answer:
The correct answer is option A. 2w + 3
w = 5 inches
Explanation:
It is given that, the length of a rectangle is 3 inches more than twice its width, and its area is 65 square inches.
To find the correct option
If 'w' is the width of rectangle, then length = 3 inches more than the twice the width
length = 2w + 3
The correct answer is option A. 2w + 3
To find the width
We have area = 65 square inches
Length * Width = 65
(2w + 3) * W = 65
2w² + 3w - 65 = 0
Solving we get ,
w = 5 and -6.5
Therefore w = 5 inches
