6 inches longer than that of the square but six inches shorter on the width. She then

agree with Selena? Explain your answer.

2.Audrey weaved a blanket. The area of the blanket is 36x2 + 19x - 6 meters
while its length is 9x – 2 meters. Find the expression for the width of the blanket.

Answer 1

Answers:

1. No I don't agree with Selena because the area of the rectangle has the exact same area of the square

Explanation:

1. square = x

rectangle length = 6 + x

rectangle width = x - 6

the plus 6 and minus 6 cancel each other out and make the same area that the square has.
