2. Draw a picture if you can.

3. Define a variable, preferably the quantity you are trying to find. {eg "Let x cm be the length of the rectangle."

4. Write down any formulas related to the problem, and define other quantities in terms of x. {eg A=lw, w=l-4

5. Write an equation involving the expressions from steps 3 and 4.

6. Solve the equation. {eg x=7

7. Answer the question in words. {eg "The length of the rectangle is 7cm."

8. Check your answer in the words of the question (not in the equation you wrote in step 5).
