Answer:

Area = L^2 + 5L units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = L

Width = L + 5 Because it is 4 longer than the length.

Area = W * L

Area = L * (L + 5)

Area = L^2 + 5L units^2

You can test it by substituting number in:

If the length is 4 and the width is 9 (4 + 5)

4 * 9 = 36 units^2

4^2 + 5 * 4 = 16 + 20 = 36 units^2
