Answer:
Width = 20 yards , length = 100 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the field be x yards wide then it's length is 5x yards.
so x + x + 5x + 5x = 240
12x = 240
x = 20.
width = 20 , length = 100 yards.
Answer:
Width = 20yards
Length = 100 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
The field is 5 times as long as it's widths...
Let's represent the width be with "w"
The length will then become *5 * w*
The perimeter of the Rectangular field then becomes:
Perimeter (P) = 2 ( w + l)
P = 2 ( w + 5w)
But P = 240
240 = 2w + 10w
240 = 12w
Divide through by 12
w = 240/12
w = 20 yards
That is ,the width = 20yards
The length is 5 times the width
Length = 5*w
Length = 5*20
Length = 100 yards
Width = 20yards
Length = 100 yards

Answer:
7 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 7 x 2 x 1/2
A = 14 x 1/2
A = 7
Hope that helps!

343: 49 × 7 = 7^2 × 7 = 7^3
125: 25 × 5 = 5^2 × 5 = 5^3
x^12(7x+5)(49x^2 -35x + 25)
x^12(7x+5)(7x-5)^2
