Question

The length of the top of a computer desk is 2 1/4 feet longer than it’s width. If it’s width measures y feet, express its length as an algebraic expression in y

Answer 1

Answer:

The length as an algebraic expression in y is  $y   + (2\frac{1}{4} )$  ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the width of the computer desk = y feet

The measure of the length of the desk = width + 2  1/4 ft

⇒Measure of Length = $y   + (2\frac{1}{4} )$   ft

Hence, the length as an algebraic expression in y is  $y   + (2\frac{1}{4} )$   ft
