Answer:

The length is  (36x -12)/(3x - 1) in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Area A= [tex]36x -12 in^2[/tex]

Width W= [tex]3x - 1 in[/tex]

we know that the area A= length * width

i.e A= L*W

we can solve for the length by making it subject of the formula

L= A/W

L= [tex]\frac{36x -12}{3x - 1} in \\\[/tex]
