You want to make a rectangular banner that is 18ft. Long with a trim around the entire border of the banner . You have no more t

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of rectangular banner = 18 ft

Total trim of banner available = 48 ft

To find:

Possible widths of the banner = ?

Solution:

Maximum trim available of the banner around the entire border of the banner = 48 ft

i.e. we are given the total perimeter of the rectangular banner.

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is given as:

$Perimeter = 2 \times (Length + Width)$

Putting the values of perimeter and length to find the value of width.

$48 = 2 \times (18 + Width)\\\Rightarrow 48 =36+2 \times Width\\\Rightarrow 2 \times Width = 48-36\\\Rightarrow 2 \times Width = 12\\\Rightarrow \bold{Width = 6\ ft}$

So, width possible is <em>6ft.</em>

what are the factors of 47 (cuz im STUPID and i dont feel like doing this cuz im working on geogrophy)

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The factors are the numbers you multiply to get 47. And they can't be fractions or numbers with fractions. They have to be integers (numbers without fractions).

So far, we see that we can multiply 1 and 47 to get 47. To see if there are any more, we see what numbers 1-10 we can divide by.

We cannot divide by 2 because 47 is odd.

We cannot divide by 3 because it gives us 15.6666...

We can't divide by 4 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 5 because 47 does not have a 5 or 0 in the ones place.

We can't divide by 6 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 7 because it gives us 6.714285....

We can't divide by 8 because 47 is odd.

We can't divide by 9 because it gives us 5.2222

And we obviously can't divide it by 10.

Therefore, the factors of 47 are 1 and 47. A number whose only factors are 1 and itself is called a prime number.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D
