The width of a rectangle is 8 more than the length. Write an expression for the length of the rectangle

L = W - 8

Where; L is length

W is width

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the length to be L and the width to be W

W = L + 8

this means we add 8 to whatever the value of the length is to get the value of the width

L + 8 = W

To make L subject of formula, we subtract 8 from both sides of the equation

L + 8 - 8 = W - 8

L = W - 8
