The area of a rectangle is 8w + 18 square feet. The length of the rectangle is 2 feet. Use factoring to write an expression to represent the width of the rectangle.

4w + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = length x width (or base x height, depending on how you look at it).

It is given to you that:

Area = 8w + 18

Length = 2

Let: width = x

Plug in the corresponding terms with the corresponding words:

8w + 18 = 2x

Isolate the variable, x. Divide 2 from both sides of the equation:

(8w + 18)/2 = (2x)/2

x = (8w + 18)/2

w = (8w)/2 + (18)/2

w = 4w + 9

4w + 9 is the expression that represents the width of the rectangle.
