Answer:

Length is 20 in

Height is 4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

The width of a rectangular box is 8in

so, W=8

The height is one fifth the length

Let's assume length =x

L=x

H=\frac{1}{5}x

now, we can find volume

V=L\times W\times H

we can plug

640=x\times 8\times \frac{1}{5}x

now, we can solve for x

\frac{8}{5}x^2=640

x^2=400

x=20

so, L=20 in

H=\frac{1}{5}\times 20

H=4

So,

Length is 20 in

Height is 4 in

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>
