Answer:

The correct answer is option A.   2w + 3

w = 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, the length of a rectangle is 3 inches more than twice its width, and its area is 65 square inches.

To find the correct option

If 'w' is the width of rectangle, then length = 3 inches more than the twice the width

length   = 2w + 3

The correct answer is option A.   2w + 3

To find the width

We have area = 65 square inches

Length * Width = 65

(2w + 3) * W = 65

2w² + 3w - 65 = 0

Solving we get ,

w = 5 and -6.5

Therefore w = 5 inches
