The length of a rectangle is 7 more than twice the width x . the area is . 372
. a) write an equation in terms of x that represents the given relationship.
the equation is

x (7+2x) = 372,

where 372 is the are of this rectangle, and is its width.

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of this rectangle is . Twice that width will be equal to .

The length of this rectangle is seven more than twice the width of this rectangle, or seven more than . The length of this rectangle will thus equal to .

The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of its width and its length. The width of this rectangle times its length will be equal to .

For this rectangle, this area is equal to 372. In other words,

.

This equation about represents the relationship between the width, length, and the area of this rectangle.
