Answer:
The equation that models this problem is w(4 + w) = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of a rectangle is
[tex]A=LW[/tex]
we have
[tex]A=12\ in^2[/tex]
so
[tex]12=LW[/tex] -----> equation A
[tex]L=W+4[/tex] ----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for W
[tex]12=(W+4)W[/tex]
therefore
The equation that models this problem is w(4 + w) = 12
