The area of a door is 3024 square inches. If the length of the door is 48 inches longer
than the width of the door, what is the
width of the door?
A: Translate the problem into an equation.
B: Solve

Lets take all factors into consideration first

The door is a rectangle and the area of a rectangle is length times width

Let the width be w

Let the length be l

Equation length × breadth = area

(w+48)w = 3024

"if it is my birthday, then it is snowing"

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
