Solving and Using an Area Formula
Use the formula for the area of a rectangle,
A = lw
• Find a formula for l in terms of A and w.
• Use the new formula to find the length of
a rectangle that has an area of 35
square feet and a width of 7 feet.
Extra Example
a. Solve A = lw for w.
b. Find the width of a rectangle that has an
area of 42 ft² and a length of 6 ft.

Example 3
Solving and using an Interest formula
Solve for r
• I = Prt
• Find the interest rate r for an investment
of $1500 that earned $54 in simple
interest in one year.
Extra Example
Solve
• I = prt for t

March 5, 1979. If the average distance from
Earth to Jupiter is about 390 million miles, how
long would it take Voyager 1 to reach Jupiter at
the following speeds:
2. 30000 mph
3. 40000 mph
4. 60000 mph
CheckPoint
