The width of a rectangular painting is 5 inches shorter than it's length. creat a table of values to include possible widths, lengths, and areas of the painting.

A = L * W
W = L - 5

                                these are in inches...

Google it that might work

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
