Enter Algebraic Expression

Write an algebraic expression for:

thelengthofarectangularbuildingis6feetlessthan3timesthewidth.theperimeteris120feet.findthewidthandlengthofthebuildi

Define our algebraic expression:

A math expression containing any of the following items:

  1. Constants (A numeric value that does not change like 5)
  2. Variables (A letter used to represent a quantity like x)
  3. Operations (Add (+), Subtract (-), Multiply (*), Divide (÷), Exponent (^), Equation (=))

Thewidth.the perimeter is expressed using the variable p. Our new expression is:
lengthofarectangularbuildingis6feetlessthan3timespis120feet.findthewidthandlengthofthebuildi

We replace thewidth with the variable w
lengthofarectangularbuildingis6feetlessthan3timespis120feet.findwandlengthofthebuildi

We replace feet with the variable f
lengthofarectangularbuildingis6flessthan3timespis120f.findwandlengthofthebuildi

We replace length with the variable l
lofarectangularbuildingis6flessthan3timespis120f.findwandlofthebuildi

lessthan

Replace the phrase lessthan with -
lofarectangularbuildingis6f-3timespis120f.findw and lofthebuildi

is

Replace the phrase is with =
lofarectangularbuilding = 6f-3timesp = 120f.findw and lofthebuildi

Replace the phrase with =
lofarectangularbuilding = 6f-3timesp = 120f.findw and lofthebuildi

Final Answer


lofarectangularbuilding=6f-3timesp=120f.findwandlofthebuildi
