Respuesta :

A.) Length= 2w-3 (w=width) 

B.) 11=2w-3

First, we add 3 to both sides... And we get
 14=2w

Next, we divide by 2 to get the w ( or width) by itself... and the answer would be 

7=w... So the width of the rectangle is 7meters

The width of the rectangle is 7 meters and this will be determined by forming the linear equation in one variable.

Given :

The length of a rectangle is 3 meters less than twice its width.

A) The length of the rectangle can be determined by forming the linear equation in one variable.

Let w be the width of the rectangle then the length of the rectangle will be:

[tex]\rm length = 2w-3[/tex]   ----- (1)

B) Given that the length of the rectangle is 11 meters. Put the value of length in equation (1).

11 = 2w - 3

14 = 2w

w = 7 meters

The width of the rectangle is 7 meters.
