Answer:

width = 3 1/4 yards

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by the formula: area = (length*width). given the area and the length, we can rearrange the formula: (area/length) = width, then, remplacing the values we got: 14\frac{1}{2} square yards / 4\frac{1}{3} yards = width, then, we rearrange the fraction as follows: 14\frac{1}{2}square yards= \frac{(14*12)+1}{2}=\frac{169}{12}square yards ; and 4\frac{1}{3} yards= \frac{(4*3)+1}{3}=\frac{13}{3} yards, then \frac{\frac{169}{12} }{\frac{13}{3} } yards= \frac{169*3}{12*13}yards = \frac{507}{156}yards, and finally we simplify \frac{\frac{507}{13} }{\frac{153}{13} } =\frac{\frac{39}{3} }{\frac{12}{3} } yards=3\frac{1}{4}yards

Convert this to improper fractions (14-1/2 sq yds = 169/12 sq yds) and (4-1/3 sq yds = 13/3 sq yds) divide 169/12 by 13/3 and you get 507/156 sq yds which is equal to 3-1/4 sq yds.

Answer:

This is an example of prejudice.

Explanation:

Prejudice is a judgment made by an individual before knowing something or someone who is the target of the judgment. This judgment creates often negative opinions that prevent the interaction between the judge and the target, and that interaction could be positive, if the pre-judgment had not been carried out. These negative ideas are called prejudice and can be seen, when a person avoids trying a new food, because he judged it as bad, for exemple.
