The area of a rectangle is 24 square centimeters. the length of the rectangle can be written as x+7 centimeters. the width of the rectangle can be written as x+5 centimeters. therefore, the value of the length is?

I think your suppose to add or multiply or divide the rectangle and centimeters

If you need an equation, it would be y=2x+8, y would be how long it grew, x being weeks.if you need how long he was asleep, it would be 4 weeks if he started with no beard, the equation would be x=8÷2if he did have a beard before hand, the equation would be 2w+x=8

What am i doing here. add?
