    This document contains two word problems involving geometric shapes. The first problem describes a rectangle with length (x-4) cm and width (2x-3) cm, where the area is 18cm^2. This can be set up as an equation to solve for x, with the length and width of the rectangle also dependent on x. The second problem describes a square with side length (x+1) cm and area of 16cm^2, which can also be set up as an equation to solve for x, with the perimeter then found using the solution.
