Question

The length, 1, of a wheelchair ramp is 3 more than 11 times itswidth, w. Which equation represents the relationship betweenthe length and the width of the ramp?

Answer 1

Let the length of the ramp is L, and the width is W

Since the length is 3 more than 11 times the width, then

$\begin{gathered} L=11\times W+3 \\ L=11W+3 \\ \end{gathered}$
