If x represents the width of a rectangle and length is four less than three times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A.
4-3x<\/p>\n\n\n\n

B.
3-4x<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C.
4x-3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D.
3x-4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To find the length of the rectangle in terms of xxx, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Define the variables:<\/strong>\n
      \n
    • Let xxx represent the width of the rectangle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The length is described as being “four less than three times the width.”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Translate the description into an algebraic expression:<\/strong>\n
        \n
      • Three times the width is 3x3x3x.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Four less than this amount means you subtract 4 from 3x3x3x.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Formulate the expression:<\/strong>Length=3x\u22124\\text{Length} = 3x – 4Length=3x\u22124<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        So, the correct expression that represents the length of the rectangle in terms of xxx is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
