Question

HELP ASAP the width is x + 15, and the length is 49 less than 2 times the width. Write a simplified expression for the length of the garage in terms of x.

Answer 1

x = 2(x + 15) - 49. Hope it helps!

Answer 2

2x - 19

Explanation:

Since the width is x + 15, “2 times the width” is 2(x + 15). “49 less than” results in this expression:

2(x + 15) − 49 = 2x + 30 − 49

= 2x − 19
