Question

A rectangle has a length given by 2x - 1 units, where x is a variable. The width of the
rectangle is equal to 3 units. Find the value of x if the area of the rectangle is equal to 27
square units.​

Answer 1

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,

area of rectangle = length * breadth

area of rectangle = 27 [GIVEN](

(2x-1) * 3 = 27

2x-1 = 27/3

2x - 1 = 9

2x = 10

x = 5 units

Answer 2

Answer:

Area= length x breadth

27 units square= 2x-1 * 3

27=2x-3

27+3=2x

30=2x

x=30/2

x=15 units
