Answer:

The answer to your question is

a) Poster             width = 3 in

                            lenght = 9 in

b) banner

                           width = 2 in

                           lenght = 10 in

Step-by-step explanation:

a) For the poster

   width = x

   lenght = 3x

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2base + 2 height

                                         = 2(x) + 2(3x) = 24

                                         2x + 6x = 24

                                         8x = 24

                                           x = 24/8

                                           x = 3

    width = 3 in

     lenght = 3(3) = 9 in

b) For the banner

    width = y

    lenght = 5y

Perimeter of a banner = 2 base + 2 height

                                        2 (y) + 2(5y) = 24

                                        2y + 10y = 24

                                        12y = 24

                                           y = 24/12

                                           y = 2

     width = 2 in

     lenght = 5(2) = 10 in

PLEASE HELP ME FOR BRAINLIEST ANSWER An architect designs a rectangular flower garden such that the width is exactly​ two-thirds
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Length: 84 ft

Width: 56 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define some variables first.

Call the length l and width w.

We know that w = 2/3l. Therefore, we can express w in terms of l with this expression.

Now, let's set up an equation. The flower garden is rectangular, and 280 feet of fencing are used to enclose the garden. This represents perimeter.

Remember the formula for perimeter of a rectangle: 2l + 2w

Let's substitute 2/3l for w:

2l + 2*2/3l = P

2l + 4/3l = 280

2 4/3l = 280

10/3l = 280

l = 84

Now, we know that the length is equal to 84 feet. We can multiply 84 feet by 2/3 to find the width.

84*2/3 = 56

Length: 84 ft

Width: 56 ft

Let's plug these values into the formula and see if they give us the correct perimeter:

2l + 2w = P

2*84 + 2*56 = P

168 + 112

= 280 feet

These are the correct dimensions!  

Hope this helps! You can reach out to me if you have further questions or concerns! :)
