Question

  1. the formula for the area of a rectangle is a = lw. a) solve for w. w = b) if the area is 150 sq. ft. and the l is 25 ft., find the w.

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate w in the formula

Given $A = Lw$, divide both sides by L. So $w=\frac{A}{L}$.

Step2: Substitute values to find w

We know $A = 150$ square - feet and $L = 25$ feet. Substitute into $w=\frac{A}{L}$, we get $w=\frac{150}{25}=6$ feet.

Answer:

A. $w=\frac{A}{L}$
B. 6 feet
