Answer:

18 inches wide

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of width to length is 3:7 we can assume that the length will be substancially longer than the width. The length is given as 42 inches long. To find how big the scale factor is, we divide 42 by 7 to get 6. 6 is our scale factor. take 3 x 6 =18 inches wide.

Hope this helps! :)

Dave delivered 52 newspapers all together on Saturday and Sunday. He delivered 8 more newspapers on Sunday than on Saturday. How
Harman [31]
Let x=papers on Saturday and y=papers on Sunday

First make equations for the information given to you

x+y=52   (total papers)            and              y= x+8     (he sold 8 more on Sunday)

then since you know y=x+8 then substitute it in the other equation like so

x+(x+8)=52 which means 2x+8=52 which means 2x=44 and therefore x=22

the problem however asks for sunday and not saturday, so solve for y now

y=x+8 which means y=22+8 which means y=30

He sold 30 papers on Sunday
