Question

The length of a rectangle is 4 units shorter that half the with .if the length of the rectangle is 18 units,which equation can be used to find w , the width of rectangle

Answer 1

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call our length and width L and W respectively.

L=1/2W-4

L=18

Since L is equal to 18, we can just replace the L in the first equation with 18 and solve.

1/2W-4=18.

We add 4 to both sides.

1/2W=22

We divide both sides by 1/2.

W=44

Have a wonderful day! :D

Answer 2

The answer is a 18= w/2-4
